What is the world’s first publicly accessible art storage facility?

The world’s first publicly accessible art storage facility is Rotterdam’s Boijmans Museum Depot. The Depot showcases all of its 151,000 collection items, from Van Goghs to Magrittes and Dalís, on permanent display to the public. The works, including more than 63,000 paintings, photographs, films, pre-industrial and design objects, contemporary art installations, sculptures, and 88,000 prints and drawings, are being stored, organized, and displayed based on their size and conservation requirements rather than theme or artist.
