Landhuis Bloemhof cultural center

Worth going. About a hour. The cathedral is definitely the main art piece. Loved it. Also loved the introduction at the beginning when buying the ticket. Wonderful space that we must support.

One of our favorite places during our trip to Curaçao. We found it by accident while google searching, then we realized it was next to Ten Café (absolutely recommended too.) There is a lot of art everywhere in the compound, from the entrance to the very humongous ‘cathedral’ of thorns. At the entrance of the art center you can find some orchids specimens mounted to trees. We recommend taking one of the tours to learn more about the artists, the history of the buildings, and more about the history of the island. The water well and antique baths was interesting to learn about. Along the property you can find some blue tail lizards that are quite big. Lastly, the big cathedral of thorns exhibits an amazing work using unusual and organic materials. Lastly, don’t forget to visit both shops at the cultural center! 100% recommended.

We did a guided tour with Jennifer. She was so great, kind, and knowledgeable. I loved to learn from her about all the nature and plants, the history of the building, and about the artist May Henriquez. We got to see the archives room and learn about the beautiful “keys to my heritage” piece by Henriquez granddaughter. The cathedral of thorns was amazing! We even got to meet the artist working on the piece. It was a very emotional and touching exhibit. This was one of my favorite things we did in Curacao and it was great to learn some local history and culture. Highly recommended the guided tour. Jennifer thank you so much for sharing your beautiful history, nature, art and culture :)

Interesting place to visit with an ever-changing collection of local art.

What a wonderful experience, from the moment we arrived until we left. Greeted with smiles, took a super informative tour, walked the grounds, and ventured into the most amazing art installation, the Cathedral of Thorns. An amazing cultural and educational experience. This is a must-do, must-see experience whilst you’re in Curaçao. 🌟 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

A neat location that combines art, history, and nature for a great experience. We got there at the right time to get a quick introduction and overview of the history of the landhuis. Beautiful sculptures and a pleasent walk in nature await. Also the cathedral of thorns is a very cool place for pictures and a thoughtful art experience. The staff were very friendly and answered all of our questions thoughtfully.

Interesting location with quirky art scattered throughout a forest trail. There is also an art exhibit at the main entrance with rotating local artists. The forest trail leads to the Cathedral of Thorns and Number Ten restaurant. It was nice to change the scene from beach hopping all day. Definitely recommend if you haven't been before.

Very informative tour by Jennifer; fauna, flora, history, arts, you name it, she knows something about it. Parking available. Good place to get some souvenirs from local artists, as well as more arty stuff. The tour was about two hours in length, with a refreshing pause in between with delicious lemonade. The cathedral of thorns is majestic and no photos can do it justice! Worth a visit, definitely one of the highlights of our stay on Curaçao. Easily move onto Number Ten for a bite, the restaurant is located at the other entrance.
