Museum Mayer van den Bergh
Museum Mayer van den Bergh, Art museum in central Antwerp, Belgium
The Gothic Revival building houses an extensive collection of medieval and Renaissance art, including paintings, sculptures, and decorative objects from the Netherlands and Belgium.
After Fritz Mayer van den Bergh's death in 1901, his mother Henriette commissioned architect Joseph Hertogs to construct this neo-gothic museum between 1901 and 1904.
The museum exhibits Pieter Bruegel the Elder's painting 'Mad Meg' alongside works by prominent artists Jan Gossaert and Quintin Massys.
The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with closures on major holidays including January 1st and December 25th.
The Mayer van den Bergh Breviary, a 1412-page illustrated manuscript from the late 15th century, was created in Antwerp for a Portuguese patron.
