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 years 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 and Nijntje have lots of friends, and they all come to the party.
Maybe you know Boris bear, Snuffy dog, Poppy pig, and Grunty and Barbera?
We love it when you join us to celebrate Miffy’s birthday.

Sing along with us, and sing Happy Birthday Nijntje!

From the airport of Schiphol, it will only take you 30 minutes to travel by direct train to Utrecht. When you arrive in Utrecht at the central station, the Nijntje Museum is within walking distance.

“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 a hundred books on Miffy in 57 languages. Miffy has its own museum called the “Dick Bruna House”. Some time ago the Dick Bruna House is renamed in the Nijntje Museum.

When you visit Utrecht you must visit Nijntje in the Nijntje museum. The official Nijntje Museum is in the Museum Quarter.

For some time now the official Nijntje Museum is closed for renovation. The temporary location of the Nijntje Museum is in the center of Utrecht, Oudegracht 167, Utrecht

 Nijntje or Miffy, the movie star

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”.
