Rijksmuseum closed indefinitely: asbestos

Unpleasant surprise news from Amsterdam:

Asbestos, the potentially lethal insulation material used in older buildings, was found during an inspection by the national buildings service, the museum said on Monday. The museum will have to be closed to public and staff for an indefinite period. . .
