Museums
Museum De Zwarte Tulp is the museum dedicated to bulb cultivation and takes you on a journey through the colorful story of the bulb industry: its centuries-old history, working on the land with its seasonal rhythm, scientific research, export, and tourism promotion. The museum also shows how artists through the centuries—and still today—have been inspired by bulbs to create works of remarkable beauty. Duinrell amusement park is located in Wassenaar, just a 15-minute drive from Van der Valk Hotel Sassenheim – Leiden. Combine your visit to Duinrell with a relaxing overnight stay in one of our spacious Comfort or Deluxe rooms. Stay outside the hustle and bustle of the park in a top-class hotel with excellent facilities and restaurants, completing your Duinrell experience!
