Museum MORE is a Dutch museum in Gorssel, Netherlands. Museum MORE is dedicated to Dutch Neorealism (art) (the name is an abbreviation of MOdern REalism). It is located in the former town hall of Gorssel, which was expanded for that purpose with seven exhibition spaces. The extension was designed by Dutch architect Hans van Heeswijk. Less than a year after the opening of the public on 2 June 2015, the museum was able to welcome its 100.000th visitor [5] A second branch of Museum MORE, in Ruurlo Castle in the municipality of Gelderland Berkelland, was opened on June 23, 2017, by Pieter van Vollenhoven. In this castle one can find the collection Carel Willink / Fong Leng.
