See all
For a stay of 1 to 3 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: less heritage and especially design and modern city. The trip can be organised without a car if the drop point and local connections are selected in advance. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Place
Strijp-S
Strijp-S is read as a reinvention of an industrial heritage: brick volumes, old structures and contemporary creations share the same space. The promenade is the richest when you look at the details of the materials as well as the current cultural uses.
Museum
Van Abbemuseum
The Van Abbemuseum focuses on rooms that are both strong and flexible, which enhances the observation of various works without saturation. A sober pace of visit makes it possible to see better the continuity between rooms and architecture.
Museum
Philips Museum
The Philips Museum is a technical articule, innovation and local narrative in a journey where objects become narrative at each stage. Going from room to room, we read the industrial impact on the city without going directly to the spectacular shutter.
Place
The Blob
The Blob attracts its obvious shape and contrast with the rest of the neighborhood: a public building that is both anchored and bold. The place gains to be observed from several angles to appreciate circulation, transparency and role in the neighbouring tissue.
