The view was great and the stories of gents citizens both rich and poor were educational while gripping. One minor problem was that the casier asked our nationality and when asked why they wanted to know they became very defensive, but that is a minor issue. I would recommend this museum for most people.

A must-see when visiting Ghent! Very informative and vivid! My 13-year-old son was able to spend two hours wandering through the different floors without complaining. There is a lot to do with textiles, printing and metal. Great views included.

Very cleverly designed museum where you immediately feel like you are in a textile factory as we heard the stories about it from our parents. Visually beautiful, you can also smell the past in the old workshops. As a bonus, I tasted a very tasty potato and onion soup. Served and prepared by kitchen employee An. In short, we had a beautiful morning.

Very interesting museum with a nice collection of textile and printing objects and machines. You’re sweet, there’s always another cool temporary exhibition. Finally, you can enjoy something tasty in the museum café

A museum on 5 floors with one theme per floor, you should expect to spend at least half a day to see everything, and take advantage of the explanations of the employees and volunteers present who revive their machines. Do not hesitate to ask them questions, they are passionate. It is a very well realized museum with lots of interactions. There is a possibility of small dining on site. We spent the day there without realizing it, we did not see the hours pass.
