Wonderful small museum with an excellent, excellent collection of classic Flemish and Netherlandish art. Just around our corner and often overlooked, but it's a gem!

Almost Next door! great small and interesting museum forgotten by many tourists and that is good, sometimes :-) this is what Nobelprize winner Omar Pamuk (literature) wrote about Rockox when he was here. We can not do better than him Nicolaas Rockox (1560-1640) came from a wealthy Flemish family, and was a patron of the arts and a collector of artworks and coins. He was mayor of Antwerp for a time, as well as a humanist and a friend of Peter Paul Rubens, who painted portraits of him as he was posing in his house among his collections of objects, paintings and furniture. When I entered this house museum for the first time, what affected me most was the strange sense of another time. I could hear the noises of the city, the sound of a tram turning a corner and children in a nearby primary school, but at the same time, as my gaze would travel over the objects, the paintings, the furniture, the rooms, I would also feel as if I were in a completely different time. His tiny, wonderful museum, situated on a side street a stone’s throw from Antwerp’s main square, was not, of course, conceived as such during Rockox’s lifetime. But today, this well-curated space, displaying a passionate art lover’s collection in his own home, among the objects of his day-to-day life, his ornaments and his furniture, provides visitors with a deep insight into a particular culture and era, and into the private world of a man who happened to live during that period.
