Peak season vs low season

Peak season (April-August): The museum is more lively, with special exhibits or events. The weather is pleasant, making it a great time for outdoor activities before or after your museum visit. Longer daylight hours allow for more time to explore the museum. Expect larger crowds, especially in the afternoons and on weekends. Tickets can sell out quickly, so booking is recommended.
Low season (September-March): The museum sees fewer crowds, allowing for a quieter experience as you explore Rembrandt’s home and artworks. Winter and autumn bring a cozy atmosphere, and the museum’s indoor exhibits make for a perfect escape from the cold. However, it means shorter daylight hours, so you’ll need to plan accordingly.
