Design Museum Gent: modern meets history

The Design Museum Gent will be closed for four years from 7 March 2022.

This impressive city residence in Rococo style was bought by the City of Ghent in 1922, and used it to house the Design Museum. The temporary exhibitions complement the magnificent permanent collection, from art nouveau to trends in contemporary design.

There is always something for families and children to do at the Design museum Gent. Play the museum game or take part in an exciting workshop. Everything is possible!

The play bag allows families with children aged between 0 and 3 to explore the collection presentation in a playful manner. Available at the museum’s ticket counter.

Would you like to take a souvenir home? Then don’t forget to take a look in the museum shop. You will definitely find something for those back home. Or for yourself.
