Heritage Days 2025

On the third weekend of September, discover the Museum’s collections through the lens of Art Deco, the theme of this 37^th edition.

Our guide will reveal the secrets of a masterpiece by Wolfers Frères: an elegant coffee and tea set, emblematic of refined Brussels Art Deco style.

Folklorissimo at the museum

The great Folklore Festival comes to the museum. In the Grand Place district, workshops and guided tours immerse you in the heart of Brussels’ heritage.

Discover an exceptional Brussels craft: tapestry. On a large loom set up especially for the occasion, Emilien Neu—a graduate of the Design Academy Eindhoven and theRoyal Academy of Fine Arts, Brussels, winner of the City of Brussels Prize of Excellence—will introduce you to the age-old techniques of this textile art.

You can also dive into the museum’s rich collection with our standing guides; they will reveal the secrets of this luxury craft.
