When we went to the Hague for Cozycon, tigermoth and I snuck off on the Sunday to visit the Escher Museum (well, we snuck off, but finding the EM was serendipity). Lots of really nice stuff, including a lot of his early stuff before he got into the tesselation business. There were two sequences of images of what seemed to be the same village - one on the Mediterranean coast somewhere, and the other on a mountain (iirc, that was Castrovalva).
Some neat interactive stuff and a cgi movie of a landscape with various of the impossible buildings in it (the viewpoint moved around so you could see the various 'impossible' bits didn't really join up).
Oh, and a wonderfully strange museum shop. Postcards and books, even t-shirts you expect, but beach towels and umbrellas?
