Lonely Planet review

The exquisite Musée David Et Alice van Buuren is located in the former house of Dutch banker David van Buuren, a wealthy collector and patron of the arts who built this Art Deco showpiece in 1928.

Five rooms are open to the public and are crammed with ancient paintings, including a version of the Fall of Icarus by Pieter Breugel the Elder, as well as more modern works such as Peeling Potatoes by Vincent van Gogh. Sublime furnishings, stained glass and carpets are dotted throughout and the meticulous staff ensure plastic shoe-coverings are donned before entering.
