Antwerp

Antwerp

A vibrant port city blending trade, fashion, and art, featuring Rubens' legacy, major museums, a grand cathedral, medieval streets, and a lively modern scene.

Antwerp is a port city of long mercantile history, shaped as much by trade and fashion as by art. Rubens is the defining artistic presence, but the city also offers major museums, a distinguished cathedral and a lively contemporary scene in design and dining. Medieval streets and waterfront spaces sit comfortably beside modern architecture and new cultural venues. The result is a city of real variety rather than a single dominant image.
