📖

Full description

KattenKabinet gathers a large collection of fine art centred on cats, from paintings and drawings to small sculptures, displayed in a canal house with a garden. Visitors often remark that real cats roam the rooms, which adds to the playful atmosphere.

Opinions are mixed, with some reviewers loving the evident affection for cats and others finding the ticket price steep for the content. It suits cat lovers and couples looking for something offbeat, and it is closed on Mondays.
