The unveiling took place during an exclusive event celebrating the continued collaboration between the LEGO Group and the Van Gogh Museum.

The structure, consisting of five rooms and built from 182,109 LEGO bricks, brings to life the place where Vincent van Gogh created his iconic sunflower paintings. The installation takes visitors through Vincent's artistic journey in Arles, from his first inspiration by the colourful gardens to his friendship with Paul Gauguin.

‘This installation represents a new highlight in our collaboration with the LEGO Group,’ said Rob Groot, Managing Director of the Van Gogh Museum. ‘It offers a unique way to experience the stories behind Van Gogh's masterpieces and connects art with the creativity of LEGO bricks in a very accessible way.’

The five rooms of the Yellow House each tell part of the story: from Vincent's quest for inspiration to his reputation as a master of colour and form.

Creative workshops this summer

In addition to the permanent installation, the Van Gogh Museum is offering two special workshops this summer that build on the collaboration with the LEGO Group.

The workshop Say It with Flowers invites visitors to discover the symbolism of flowers from different cultures and build their own bouquet, inspired by the meaning behind Van Gogh's flower paintings.

The workshop Building and Chatting is a workshop where visitors build LEGO sets while having special conversations about art, creativity and connection using conversation cards.

The Yellow House made of LEGO bricks can be admired at the Van Gogh Museum until 28 September 2025, after which the installation will travel to LEGO® House in Billund and LEGO® World in Utrecht.

The collaboration between the LEGO Group and the Van Gogh Museum began earlier this year with the launch of the LEGO® Art Vincent van Gogh – Sunflowers set. This 2,615-piece set, developed in close collaboration with museum experts, is available for € 199.99 in the museum shop and online.
