Excellent place about Vermeer - For such a small building, the space is very cleverly utilized. There are reproductions of all Vermeer's paintings in chronological order with displays, timelines, and an excellent audio guide that takes you through his life and the time period he lived in. I wish more museums used this technique. The gift shop has an extensive collection of books and souvenirs. Much better than what I saw elsewhere. Highly recommended for a visit!

Interesting Story - Although there are no actual Vermeer paintings here, they have reproductions of all the 39 painting that have survived. They are presented in the basement of the building in chronical order so you can see his style and skill increase over the year. His story is well told and interesting.

Great, I really appreciated the explanations of the works - I really liked it because for those who love Vermeer, they will be delighted. The museum is well studied, the rooms are well arranged and you have an audio guide thanks to which you can learn lots of things, up to our days when this great painter inspired fashion and other artists. Certainly there are copies but there are many gathered in the same place, very practical Entrance 12 euros. I recommend

A must do to get to know the painter! - Extremely well done museum. Certainly there is no original painting but the explanations on each painting are precise without being boring. The scenes are very interesting

Great experience - My wife and I went to Delft whilst on a cruise to Rotterdam. Included in our coach trip was a visit to the Vermeer Centrum. What a great idea. If you are interested in art and more specifically Vermeer this is a great place to visit. What we found the most interesting was the explanation of Vermeer's techniques and the pigments used as well as a little information on each of the paintings. Without this information we would have missed so much of the detail in the paintings. We only had an hour but it was the minimum time you would need. Preferably you would need about 2 hours so as not to have to rush anything. There is also a great gift shop which stocks lots of items of interest.

Very interesting, even if you are not a fan of 17th century Dutch painting. - Small museum which presents reproductions of all of Vermeer's works. Explains how Vermeer used colors, perspectives, lighting effects, etc. Gives keys to understanding the works. Lots of explanations, audio guide especially in French.

An opportunity for in-depth study - Vermeer's analysis of light and techniques for representing it is very interesting. Sad to discover that the vast majority of the master's works are found in the USA

Informative, not very interactive - This center tells you everything about the life and work of Johannes Vermeer. The examples of his interaction with light and paint ingredients fascinated me. Unfortunately, I found the way the information is presented quite static. I also think the €12 entrance fee is relatively expensive for this static presentation. However, if you are interested in Johannes Vermeer: definitely visit.

No paintings, a lot of facts. - Sadly, we thought it was a museum with paintings. But it is just an information center with signs and videos about restaurations. If you read the web page they don't mention that they have paintings but they give the impression that you will meet Vermeer's work. Which you don't. Just prints that you can as well look on in a book or on internet. But it is a nice place, it is better than Googling if you are new to Vermeer.

Tickets paid via tripadvisor, obviously provided by Viator, do not work at the museum :-(... - Tickets purchased via Tripadvisor do not work when you arrive at the museum!!! Forced to buy tickets on site, and therefore pay a second time. Complaint made, it remains to be seen if Tripadvisor will reimburse me....
