Spearheading the rejuvenation of the Willemdok harbor area, the Museum aan de Stroom (MAS) stands as a striking architectural landmark. Designed by Neutelings Riedijk, the museum rises 60 meters above the harbor, constructed from layers of bright-red sandstone bricks interwoven with glass and steel. Inside, visitors can explore well-curated exhibitions that delve into the rich history and culture of Antwerp. The museum’s distinctive design and informative displays offer a compelling experience for those interested in the city’s past and its evolving identity.
