Belasting & Douane Museum

Why do we pay tax? Since when does a part of our income go to the taxman, and where does it end up? These and other questions are answered in the interesting and interactive Belasting & Douane Museum (Tax & Customs Museum) in Rotterdam, taking you on a revealing journey through a thousand years of Dutch tax history. Unlike the abstract concept of art, tax is a subject that touches everyone and by putting it on display at a museum, visitors get the opportunity to explore some of the conflicts and issues that touches society even the day today. The Tax Museum certainly shows that tax is anything but boring.
