In the picturesque village of Gees in Drenthe lies a place where art and nature meet in perfect harmony: the **Sculpture Garden Gees**. Set in over 7 hectares of lush landscape, this open-air museum invites you to wander, reflect, and be inspired.
As you walk along paths lined with trees, ponds, and meadows, you’ll encounter dozens of sculptures by both Dutch and international artists. The artworks range from abstract and modern to classical and expressive, each enhanced by the serene natural surroundings.
In addition to the garden, there’s an indoor gallery showcasing rotating exhibitions of painting, photography, ceramics, and glass art. This blend of indoor and outdoor experiences makes for a rich and complete visit.
The atmosphere is peaceful and slow-paced. Benches are scattered throughout, encouraging quiet contemplation. Guided tours and artist talks are available for those seeking a deeper connection with the works. The garden also hosts cultural events and creative workshops throughout the year.
At the on-site garden café, you can enjoy a coffee, tea, or light lunch while overlooking the landscape dotted with sculpture. The Sculpture Garden is easily accessible by car and offers ample parking.
Whether you're an art enthusiast, nature lover, or someone looking for tranquility, the Sculpture Garden in Gees offers a space for inspiration, serenity, and beauty.
