It says 'This object is in storage'. Does that mean I can see it or not?
Thank you.

Hi there,

All objects that are indicated to be 'in storage' are currently stored in our depot. Our depot in Rotterdam is accessible for public. It is also possible to visit the compartment in which this object is stored. For this you can book a free tour at the entrance (this does require an entree ticket). However, it is not possible yet to request to see a specific object. So you might not be able to see it on your visit. We are currently testing this and hopefully you will be able to soon!

Best regards,
Gianni
