Reopening of museum delayed
Amsterdam’s renowned Rijksmuseum, home to some of the most famous works by Rembrandt and other Dutch masters and which is undergoing restoration, will not reopen until 2010, two years later than planned.
The need for extra building permits after some initial designs had been modified caused the delay, the Dutch culture ministry said in a statement on Wednesday.
