STAM Ghent City Museum, City museum in Ghent, Belgium
The STAM Museum displays Ghent's evolution through a chronological exhibition combining historical artifacts, digital installations, and interactive displays in a renovated medieval building.
The museum building originated in 1228 as St Mary's Hospital, operated by religious sisters before transforming into a medical facility and later a cultural institution.
The permanent exhibition presents the story of Ghent from medieval times to the present through multimedia installations, historical objects, and a large interactive floor map.
Visitors can explore the museum Monday through Friday from 9:00 to 17:00, weekends from 10:00 to 18:00, with guided tours available in multiple languages.
The museum features a massive aerial photograph of Ghent as a walkable floor surface, allowing visitors to physically step across different sections of the city.
