Art park

Throughout its history, the museum park underwent a fascinating transformation.

Castle

The renowned Middelheim castle is our eye-catching feature as well as being a multifaceted elegant refuge.

The House

A serene exhibition concept which knows how to seamlessly weave architecture art and nature together.

The Braem Pavilion

Renaat Braem designed a pavilion as well as an exceptional architectural gem.

Temporary exhibitions

Contemporary artists exhibit their work in the park several times a year, at the request of the Middelheim Museum.

Johan Creten, Pliny’s Sorrow, 2014

Rijnkaai Antwerpen

At first glance the work exudes raw power, dominance even. You may even think that this is an eagle that has spread its wings. A symbol of power in European history which also embodies the American ideal of freedom.

Contemporary art creations in public spaces

Temporary and (semi-)permanent interventions.

De Sokkel

Since 2011, Antwerp’s Central Park

The Klein Antwerpen community association and the Middelheim Museum have added a cultural touch to Antwerp’s central park with this project since 2011.

Light sculpture, Elias Derboven

Driesnellenstraat, 2060 Antwerp

Head over to Driesnellenstraat in Antwerp’s ‘den Dam’ neighbourhood to see an original artwork: a light sculpture with a text in the form of a bird. The artwork was installed at the neighbourhood’s request and enhances the street’s appearance.

Restorations / cleaning statues in the city

The Middelheim Museum is responsible for the maintenance and conservation of the city’s sculpture heritage.
