    Full description

    Easily accessible by public transportation from Brussels, AfricaMuseum tells the story of human and natural history with a collection of artifacts from the colonial era in central Africa.  Aiming to objectively frame the art and cultural objects acquired during Belgium's rule in Rwanda and Congo, the museum has undergone extensive renovations and is now open to the public. 

    Topics of colonial history, sustainable development, and biodiversity are now addressed head-on following the museum's redesign. A curated collection of contemporary art has also been added to paint a fuller picture of Central Africa, past and present.

    Your entry ticket will give you access to walk the French gardens, browse collections of artifacts that bring the past to life in the remodeled, and see contemporary African art.

    Beautiful museum. Lot of things to learn about the colonial times, but also about today. Easy to move within the different rooms and very good explanations (and in four languages). It is a pity the restaurant/cafeteria is closed, I would have stayed longer.

    Prachtig museum met een zeer gevarieerde verzameling Afrikaanse kunst. Een goed restaurant met mooi zicht op de grote tuin en een vriendelijke bediening is een aanrader. Een kaart nemen bij het begin van je bezoek met de indeling van het gebouw is een must om te weten waar je bent.
