Unimaginable
Rijksmuseum Boerhaave
Until January 7, 2024
A tiny microscope was all he needed to uncover an entirely new world, a world nobody had seen before. From 18 April 2023, National Museum Boerhaave revisits a world first discovered by Antoni van Leeuwenhoek 350 years ago. The amazing microworld becomes visible in the special temporary exhibition Unimaginable. How Van Leeuwenhoek’s microscope changed the world.
