Snijders&Rockox House, Renaissance museum in Keizerstraat, Belgium

The Snijders&Rockox House consists of two connected historical residences featuring Renaissance architecture with multiple exhibition spaces and period rooms.

Nicolaas Rockox, the mayor of Antwerp, purchased the Den Gulden Rinck house in 1603 and transformed it into a Renaissance residence with a picture gallery.

The museum displays an extensive collection of paintings from Flemish masters including Peter Paul Rubens, Jan van Hemessen, and Anthony van Dyck.

The museum provides accessibility features with an elevator and movable ramps, while offering interactive activities through iPads and digital screens for visitors.

The museum merges two distinct historical houses where prominent figures Frans Snijders and Nicolaas Rockox lived during the 17th century.
