Ceramic route
The Delft Ceramics Route passes ceramic artworks in public spaces, museums and former earthenware potteries. Enjoy a stroll from the gardens of Museum Prinsenhof Delft to Royal Delft.
Delft and ceramics are inextricably linked. Not only does the city boast a centuries-old tradition in ceramics, but it also has a highly active and contemporary ceramics sector. Experience the Delft highlights of ceramics during this ceramics route!
Follow the blue and white ceramic pavement cobblestones - a design by artist Christina Linaris-Coridou - stroll past ceramic artworks, be delighted by unexpected objects and discover why Delft is rightly referred to as Ceramics City.
