All ages

The Euromast is Rotterdam's observation tower, next to the park and the river. Take the lift up to the viewing platforms at 112 metres, with the city, the port and the Maas at your feet, and, if you pay for the full experience, to the Euroscoop, a glass cabin that rotates as it rises to 185 metres. On the ground floor, the exhibition The Rise of Rotterdam tells the story of the city, and for children there is a treasure hunt.

Tickets

Open every day from 9:30 to 22:00. General admission, with the viewing platforms, costs €17.50 (€13.50 reduced); with the Euroscoop, €23.50 (€19). The tower reopened in 2026 after renovating the restaurant and the upper section. It is at Parkhaven 20, twenty minutes' walk from the Erasmus Bridge or a tram ride.

Frequently asked questions
