Learning about Escher

Every child knows that water cannot run upstream or that a fish cannot turn into a bird. But at Escher in The Palace everything is different, because water does run upstream and fish do turn into birds! The second floor has a special experience called 'Through Escher's Eyes'. An optical illusion depicts something which is in fact impossible. M.C. Escher was a master at tricking the eye. Come and experience the joy of graphic artist M.C. Escher in Escher in The Palace. Upon booking, secondary schools receive in-depth background information and a free viewing guide. Primary school groups also receive this background information and can use the exciting scavenger hunt (9+) and explore the museum in a playful way.

Guided tour

A guided tour through the museum is also possible. The tour is adjusted to the level and age of the students. A maximum of 15 students per guide can take part. The additional costs for a one-hour tour are €60,- per guide.
