Brussels Fine Arts Museum - Ancient arts Reviews

Mar 16, 2007
The museum of ancient arts is my favorite Brussels (and when I think about it, Belgian) museum. It can't really compete with giants as Le Louvre or the Prado museum, but it has a nice collection of artwork dating somewhere between the 15th and 18th century if I'm correct.
What might be nice for tourists is the fact that the bigger part of the collection consists of Flemish and Netherlands artwork made during the Ancien Régime. Some really famous works are to be admired, including paintings by Breugel, Rubens, Memling, Bosch and countless "Flemish primitives". These are all artists that have marked the Belgian history and culture, and have gained international fame as time went by. The Fine Arts museum of Ancient Arts is located in the same street as the fine arts museum of Modern art (which surely encourages a mixed visit) and is opened from 10am until 5pm (normally every day).
