What will I get to see in the museum?

Step inside 1507 and discover Mechelen's rich heyday as the capital of the Burgundian Netherlands. In the permanent exhibition of Museum Hof van Busleyden, you will discover three worlds: that of governess Margaret of Austria, resident Hieronymus van Busleyden and the Hospital Sisters. The display also shows several Flemish masterpieces: from the beautifully illustrated Mechelen Choir Book to the unique collection of Enclosed Gardens. There is also contemporary art woven into the presentation.

Other than that there is a brand new coffee bar, a revamped museum shop and completely redesigned museum gardens.

Should I reserve a ticket online?
