The cultural hotspot of Groningen

Another eye-catching building is added to the skyline of Groningen's historic city centre. Forum Groningen, open since november 2019, was designed by Amsterdam-based NL Architects for the City of Groningen. It covers a surface area of 17,000 m2 on ten floors, is open seven days a week and hosts a diverse array of activities around one coherent ambition: explore the world, discover the future. Forum Groningen's ambition is to let today's world and tomorrow's opportunities inspire the residents and visitors of Groningen. It hopes to achieve this with international exhibitions, film and literature festivals, as well as courses, workshops and talks. Forum Groningen challenges the public to keep an open mind while exposing them to the latest social and technological developments. To this end, the Forum hosts exhibitions and has the interactive Storyworld museum, five cinemas, a multi-purpose events venue, the city library, study and work places, a Medialab and a Smartlab.

Wow!
We came for the views, which were spectacular. A full 360 of the city. Using the escalators is an experience in itself as they are located in the centre of the building and you can look all the way to the ground. And the building is tall! We returned to check out an art installation and visit tourist information. Great building, I was only surprised at how empty it was. A great shame.

Outstanding architecture - Don't miss it
The modern exterior is interesting in itself, but the inside is outstanding and a credit to the inspired designers and builders. Nothing dull or humdrum about the multiple spaces on 10 levels whether for work,research or entertainment this cultural icon is a standout feature of this truly wonderful city. A true class act!
