The museum is devoted to the modern art that was created after the end of the Second World War. However you may also find there some travelling exhibits from many other countries. The Shipping House is one of the most famous and worth seeing monuments in the capital of Holland. It was designed by architect van der Mey and built for six Dutch shipping companies. The building is richely decorated with elements that remind of the times when Holland was a colonial and sea power. At present it is a seat of Municipal Transportation Company. Nevertheless you may take a part in a guided tour of this unique monument.
