β β β β β The museum was located very central in leiden close enough to central station. Mr. Siebold's life story was genuinely engaging and eye-opening (imagine being representative as the only country who could trade with Japan at that time). The collection themselves however, was a bit plain compared to the narratives in the first exhibition room. For those museum lovers enjoying the storytelling, I would suggest spend most of your time in the first room and take a quick scan of the rest of the Siebold's collection if you are in a hurry.
The "Ogata GekkΕ and his contemporaries" on the second and the third floor would be an attraction if you are interested in Japan woodblock painting typically during the Meiji period. You can even find the painting that Vincent Van Gogh took inspiration from. I would suggest the overall visiting time to be of 2 hours if you have enough time. If not, just visit the first room and listen to Siebold's story and you are off to go.

β β β β β I feel really bad rating this so low ... but ... what a disappointment. One room had nifty specimens. The rest was very sparce. The upstairs floor had 6 or 8 small pieces on display. Not even worth the walk up the stairs ?
Couldn't even find a good magnet for a souvenir... they had only one and it had nothing to do with the museum.
Total disappointment.

β β β β β Rather cool place. Prebook your tickets online and get an audio guide when you arrive. It's not as big as other museums but there is still some interesting artwork and history to see. Recommend going, only stayed for 1.5hrs. Toilets also available.

β β β β β Really enjoyed my visit. Can totally recommend it. Fine arts. Intruiging objects. I posted some pictures to give an impression, but that is not the same experience as really going there!

β β β β β If you love japanese samurai era type stuff then this isnt the museum that gives it. Mostly animals and nifty specimens.
Its quite small and within 20min you will probably be outside again

β β β β β A small but very interesting museum of objects from a small particular collection in permanent exhibition, and two floors with temporal exhibitions that may be Japanese paintings, art of traditional printing or something else. Personally, the most interesting part was a history of the place narrated in a short film about the original owner of the house. His curious collection of Japanese objects, some flora and fauna make the visit worthy.
