The exhibition COOLSINGEL is an ode to the vibrant heart of Rotterdam. The history of our city is reflected in this street’s transformations over the years: from a medieval city canal, to urban artery, to futuristic city lounge of an international city.

The exhibition is composed around a timeline, and offers an impressive cinematic experience. Stories about historical objects shed light on key themes. What does the development of the Coolsingel say about how  Rotterdam sees itself, and its changing ambitions as a city?
