The Cultural and Social Life

Dutch cultural and social life is rich and varied. In particular, the Dutch painters of the 17th century (Rembrandt) and 19th century (Vincent van Gogh) had a major impact on art.

Nowadays, Dutch writers especially are regarded as influential. If you wish to find out more about cultural and social life in the Netherlands, you can find a useful calendar of exhibitions and events on this website.

Sport is also popular as a form of recreation in the Netherlands. As one fifth of the country consists of water, it is hardly surprising that water sports are popular. Other common sports are football, golf, tennis, running, squash and cycling. Skating is popular in the winter.
