Events

On Human Rights Day 2025, the House of European History invites you to a unique event with Bosnian transdisciplinary artist Smirna Kulenović.

Slow Looking Saturday is a museum series taking place during the temporary exhibition ‘Presence of the Past – a Photo Album’.

November - From the fifteenth century, European countries traded, settled and achieved political control all over the world, establishing colonies in the Americas, Africa and Asia, often through brutal means. European colonial powers grew fantastically wealthy, but inflicted misery, inequality and racism on the peoples they had colonised.

Historians, artists, curators, and memory practitioners from across Europe gather for a day of dialogue, critical reflection, and exchange on the legacies of fascist and military dictatorships in Spain, Portugal, and Greece.

The ‘Wild About Art’ team are back for Kunstendag voor Kinderen! Follow our special art trail around the museum, complete drawing challenges and learn about European history!
