At the very place where an incandescent light bulb was first manufactured by father-son duo Frederik and Gerard Philips in 1891, stands a grand, glass-walled museum that recalls the history of this global company and chronicles its timeless heritage. Nestled in the heart of the town, the Philips Museum is a fitting tribute to the commendable contributions to technology that the legendary conglomerate has made since that fateful night in 1891. Illuminated by the light of its long-list of discoveries that span fields of healthcare, music and communications, the museum reveals its successful journey one invention at a time, from its contributions to medical imaging and X-ray equipment, to LED lighting and space shavers. It also recreates the rudimentary lab of the original Philips founders that birthed the incandescent light bulb, regaling visitors with the life-altering power of innovation.
