In Leiden, there is something to discover around every corner. Rich history, the Leiden courtyards, hundreds of monuments, the oldest university in the Netherlands, 13 museums, and a charming city center. Sailing through the Leiden canals or getting lost in romantic alleyways. It is not for nothing that this is the City of Discoveries.

Experience the highlights

Looking for the best highlights in Leiden? Imagine yourself back in the 17th century through the Leiden alleys, experience the time of the young Rembrandt in Leiden or walk along the canals, city gates, bridges and windmills and get carried away by Leiden history.
