1 museums & galleries in Purmerend
Purmerend is twenty minutes north of Amsterdam and is what a Dutch market town looks like when it has grown into a commuter town: a compact old centre with a Thursday market, ringed by post-war neighbourhoods with a lot of green between them. The Purmerbos and the Beemster polder — a UNESCO-listed grid of seventeenth-century reclaimed land — are on its doorstep. For families it is chiefly a practical place, well served by buses into the city and by the services listed here.

The one museum or gallery in Purmerend is not free — it charges for entry. Free entry is tagged on a card the moment a venue offers it, so this answer changes with the data rather than with an edit, and the listing links through to the venue's own prices.
Of the one museum or gallery here: wheelchair access at one, elevator at one and accessible bathroom at one. Those are the facilities the venues publish themselves, shown on every card, so you can filter for the one that decides your morning before you set off. Anything not listed is simply not stated by the venue rather than known to be absent.
The closest towns with museums & galleries of their own are Amsterdam (fifteen, about 16 km away), Muiden (one, about 21 km away) and Almere (one, about 27 km away).
