Objects that all tell a human story

Wereldmuseum Leiden is one of the three Wereldmuseum sites. As well as Leiden, you can also visit Wereldmuseum in Amsterdam and Rotterdam. In Nijmegen, you’ll find Wereldlab. Each site has its own character, but together they form one Wereldmuseum.

About Wereldmuseum Leiden With its scientific orientation and collecting history, Wereldmuseum Leiden focuses on global cultural histories. The themes you see here include religion or indigenous worlds and their struggle for independence and restoration of historical injustice. The exhibitions encourage us to reflect on what it means to be human, what our connection is with the world around us, and how we relate to each other.
