Film and photography

Guidelines for visitors

In the Mauritshuis you're free to take pictures. We actually encourage it! How great is it that you want to remember your visit and share what you thought of it? Please tag us on Instagram, Facebook or TikTok.  

So that we can enjoy our art for centuries and for the safety it, we do ask that you turn off the flash and leave a tripod or selfie stick at home. 

Filming in the Mauritshuis is allowed if you meet the following conditions:

• Only film with your smartphone.
• Only shoot footage of the art on display, not the visitors.
• Please don't bring extra light equipment, music, selfiesticks or stabilizers.
• On some occasions our staff may prohibit you from filming.
