Overview

Theme for 2024: Routes, networks and connections - Onderweg!

Every year in the second weekend of September, thousands of beautiful monuments throughout the Netherlands are accessible to everyone for free. Open Monument Day 2024 will take place on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 September. The theme is 'Routes, Networks and Connections', which provides room for countless possibilities for creative programming. A promising prospect for people who plan to go out during Open Monument Day this year. The host municipality for the national opening – on the Friday preceding the weekend – will be announced at a later stage.

Additional information
Each year around 85 percent of Dutch municipalities participate in the Open Monumentendag, organised by local committees. In recent years around 1.5 million unique visitors have participated annually, making the Open Monumentendag one of the Netherlands’ premier cultural events. Open Monumentendag has established itself as an integral part of the Dutch cultural calendar and has helped significantly in rallying support for the preservation of historical monuments in the Netherlands.

The Dutch Open Monumentendag is organised by the Nederland Monumentenland foundation, together with governmental institutions, NGOs, associations, voluntary organisations, individual owners of monuments on a national level and many, many volunteers in nearly 90% of all Dutch municipalities.
