Museum RockArt collects, manages, preserves, digitizes, and presents the cultural heritage of (inter)national music history from the 1950s to the present.
Interesting Collection
From Armand to ZZ and the Maskers, from Indorock to Golden Earring, and from Jazz to Rock & Roll. The interesting collection includes guitars, drum sets, stage costumes, posters, awards, gold and platinum albums, LPs, singles, books, music magazines, fan club magazines, cover designs, contracts, photos, videos, black and white photo cards, pinball machines, old amplifiers, and all sorts of things related to pop music.
Rotating themed exhibitions are organized regularly. The unique video and audio clips complete the exhibitions. The original Radio Veronica studios from the 1960s are also on display in the museum. This trip down memory lane is highly recommended for music lovers!
Shop
In the shop, an extensive collection of vinyl (including second-hand), CDs, books, T-shirts, mugs, and other merchandise is for sale, where 70 years of music history can also be admired.
