Work in progress
Art institution Stroom The Hague manages the website BKDH.nl about art on the streets on behalf of the municipality. When we launched the website in 2021, we first focused on making information about as many artworks from all districts of the city as possible accessible online. The counter now stands at over 590 images. An occasional work of art is still missing. We are working on that.

Besides information about the sculptures themselves, we also post Routes and other information about the art on the streets on this website. For example, you can go out with our walking route in the city center, with the bicycle routes through Escamp, Leidschenveen-Ypenburg and Mariahoeve and there is a walk in the Zuiderpark available. More routes in other parts of the city will be added in the coming years.

Missing an image? Then go to the Outside Image section(https://bkdh.nl/kunstwerken/?_buiten_beeld=permanent%2Ctijdelijk%2Cverdwenen). There you can find information about artworks that have temporarily or permanently disappeared from view. Here you can read more about how and why a collection of artworks is always in flux.

The website is a living archive that we would like to work with all users to keep as informative and up-to-date as possible. For example, sometimes the name of the artist, an exact date or title is unknown. If you have more information, something is incorrect or you have a nice story about an artwork, please let us know at info@bkdh.nl.

Reporting damage or loss
Unfortunately, it sometimes happens that a work of art is damaged in the public space. Or that plants and work are detrimental to a work of art. Please notify us if you notice anything wrong with or near an outdoor work of art via denhaag.nl/meldingen.

Thank you for your participation! This is how we keep up the collection together!

Donate or request
Would you like to donate a work of art to the city? Or would you like a new work of art, or a memorial in memory of something or someone? You can request this from the municipality of The Hague. The municipality will consider whether it can add the artwork or memorial to the collection. The subject and purpose must fit the city. The desired location must also be appropriate and suitable. The municipality also takes into account the maintenance and costs of placing new art and memorials.
