Museum retracing the history of Mechelen and its arts through collections of great Mechelen sculptors such as Luc Fayd'herbe
This Renaissance residence was built around 1500 by the architects Keldermans for the humanist Jérôme de Busleyden, a friend of Erasmus and Thomas More. Brick alternates with stone ornamentation, in the Flemish Renaissance tradition. The museum traces the history of the city and its arts (17th-20th centuries). Among the collections is the Opsinjoorke mannequin, with its disgustingly ugly mask! Also on display are works by the great Malines sculptors of the 16th and 17thcenturies , such as Luc Fayd'herbe. The painting collection includes Rubens' Christ on the Cross.
