Nijntje at Miffy museum

Nijntje is known as Miffy or ミッフィー .
All over the world Nijntje is known as Miffy because the name Nijntje is so difficult to pronounce abroad. The Nijntje museum is located In Utrecht, a city in the Centre of Holland.
Why is the official Nijntje museum located in Utrecht? Dick Buna, the creator of Nijntje, was born in Utrecht where he also lived as a proud resident.

Happy birthday Nijntje, congratulations Miffy

Every 5 year there is a huge birthday party in the city of Utrecht.
Nijntje was born in 1955 and her birthday will be celebrated with lots of festive events. Miffy or Nijntje has lots of friends, they all come to the party.

 Nijntje the Musical

On this page, we will keep you informed about all coming events. Check this  Playlist and find a nearby theatre in Holland where the musical is performed.

“Dick Bruna House” renamed “Nijntje Museum”

Nijntje is created by Dick Bruna in 1955. Dick was a famous and well respected person in Utrecht. In 1955 his first book on Miffy was published. During half a century Dick published more than hundred  books on Miffy in 57 languages. Miffy has its own museum called the “Dick Bruna House”. When you visit Utrecht you must visit Nijntje in the Nijntje museum, which is in the Museum Quarter. Since July 2015 the Dick Bruna House is renewed and temporarily closed, the museum will be renamed in “Nijntje Museum”. A grand Nijntje exposition is visitable in Centraal Museum just opposite the street. The new museum, open from 6 February 2016, is larger and the content is even better suited to families with young children.

 Nijntje or Miffy, the moviestar

There are a lot of cute Nijntje movies in Dutch, English, Chinese, Japanese and other languages, you can buy them but some of them you can see for free on the internet. I like to show you some, here you find a collection of  Nijntje movies in the Dutch language.  Come and see the happy Miffy’s birthday movie in English.

Christmas time. Feliz Navidad Miffy!

Every year at Christmas time Miffy visits the Nativity. There she meets Jozef, Mary, the Wiz men and their camels, the Shepherds and the other animals in the stable surrounding baby Jesus. Just like Nijntje, you will find the nativity at Nijntje museum.
Merry Christmas dear Miffy, or as we say in Dutch “Fijne Kerstdagen lieve Nijntje”.
