Limburg Museum

It mounts a number of special exhibitions each year along with events, activities and historical film showings.

There were already plans for a "city museum" in 1924,[2] but these were never implemented and so the collection long remained in Venlo's town hall.

Around 1963 the decision was taken to set up the Goltziusmuseum, which was officially opened on 3 June 1967 by Marga Klompé, then the Dutch minister for Culture, Leisure and Social Work.

The Limburgs Volkskundig Instituut was also moved into the Kasteel Limbricht, with its collections including a library bequeathed by the folk-scholar Winand Roukens.
