About Chabot Museum
The Chabot Museum in Rotterdam is dedicated to the work of the Dutch painter and sculptor Hendrik Chabot. It is housed in a white villa from 1938 built in the New Objectivity style, which is now protected as a national cultural monument. The building sits in Museumpark, between the Netherlands Architecture Institute and the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen. The collection includes works from the 1920s as well as paintings from the World War II era. One particular highlight is the loaned piece "Fire of Rotterdam," which depicts the destruction of the city by German bombs in 1940. Since 1993, the villa has hosted the exhibitions and also awards the visual arts prize named after the artist.

This neat little museum is housed in a splendid modernist 1930s villa. It houses a collection of works of the expressionist painter Hendrik Chabot. A very recommendable if short visit for art lovers.
