The Hague Museum of Photography

The Hague Museum of Photography organises around six exhibitions a year covering a wide range of periods, disciplines and genres in the history of photography, often focusing on the human figure.

The Hague Museum of Photography opened its doors in December 2002. It is part of the Gemeentemuseum The Hague and works closely with the Print Room of Leiden University Library.

Every year the museum organises around six exhibitions covering a wide range of periods, disciplines and genres in the history of photography, often focusing on the human figure. This wide-ranging approach – national and international, traditional and contemporary, black-and-white and colour – has enabled the museum to build up a broad public keen to sample such a varied and outstanding programme. 

The museum is associated with an important prize awarded each year: the Silver Camera for press photography in the Netherlands.
