Young Rembrandt Studio — where Rembrandt began

The Young Rembrandt Studio on the Langebrug stands on the spot where Rembrandt van Rijn trained as a young painter. Film, reconstructions and images tell the story of his apprentice years in his home town of Leiden.

What you will see

A short film about the young Rembrandt, reproductions of his earliest work and the context of the 17th-century Leiden he grew up in — the perfect start to the Rembrandt walking route.

  • Free admission.
  • Allow 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Often combined with Museum De Lakenhal, which holds real early Rembrandts.
