Both locations of the Frans Hals Museum are open during the Christmas market.
This weekend, the center of Haarlem will be transformed into one of the largest and nicest Christmas markets in the country. The Christmas market is generally very well attended, so it will be busier in the city center than usual. Especially around the Grote Markt, where Frans Hals Museum Hal is located.
The stalls are set up from the station towards the Grote Markt and in the streets around the Grote Markt. If you come by train to Haarlem, then the Christmas market is also on a large part of your walking route to both locations of our museum.
