SONS Museum, Art museum in Kruisem, Belgium.
The SONS Museum is an art museum in Kruisem dedicated to displaying shoe collections. The exhibition spans multiple floors and showcases both historical and contemporary footwear from different periods.
The institution was founded in 2009 and is based on a private collection of over 2700 shoe pairs. These were gathered by William Habraken during his travels across more than 120 countries.
The collection shows shoemaking traditions from different cultures and regions around the world. This variety lets visitors see how different communities created and wore their footwear.
Visitors can get information at the reception about current exhibitions and opening times. The museum has elevators for different floors, and most areas are wheelchair accessible.
The collection includes a special group of shoes damaged by a dog that chewed through hundreds of pairs during the gathering process. This unusual story makes the collection engaging beyond its historical and cultural value.
