the garden was nice, their were no English information leaflets and a large group had gone in before us, the rooms were difficult to walk round with the large tour group already there.

I went there with one of my friend during June 2012. If you are student and less than 27 year of age, there is a special discount for the tickets. You need around 2 to 3 hour all together to see all the paintings. There are some household commodities which was used by Rubens. I was really touched by the...

One of the highlights of a city full of interesting sights. Rubens house is very elaborate and wonderfully decorated and contains many of his paintings. I had no idea he was so wealthy. No starving artist here! Right outside are several restaurants as well. The audio tour is quite comprehensive and it takes about 1.5 hours to see the whole...

I loved the intimate nature of this museum whcih was originally the home of Rubens himself. Some lovely paintings, furniture and all well set out with good viewing notes!
The classic tourist place in Antwerp and therefore felt a lot more crowded than elsewhere. Seemed quite ostentatious after the more homely Rockox House but still lovely range of artwork by Flemish masters and a good garden - worth doing once.
I went to visit this museum because I like Rubens but also because i was freezing and I tried to get some shelter inside. The paintings are not all by Rubens , actually theer are very few of his, however it is still very interesting and the house itself is very fascinating.

Not very clear which route through the house they intend you to take. Exhibits are numbered but not all where they say they are. Not as many paintings by Reubens as I expected and very little of the house is as it was when he lived there. Still interesting though.
The home of the painter Rubens is a beautiful exposure of the culture and beauty of the classical arts. The garden is a serene and peaceful place to allow the building and time to reach you. The art and furniture pieces in the home are astoundingly beautiful.
It is a pleasure to walk through the rooms, which are well appointd with aspects from Rubens' lofe. Loved the sertings and the explanatory cards. The paintings on the walls are a bonus, and walking through the gardens was a good experience. Loved the sections with jewellery exhibits, and a room with leather embossed walls. Especially interesting is the half...
