Museum Mayer van den Bergh

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:42:58

This 16th-century town house was actually constructed in 1904 and was one of the first museums in the world to be built around a single collection. Fritz Mayer van den Bergh's collection is indeed as rich as that of many a national gallery and includes Bruegel’s brilliantly grotesque Dulle Griet (Mad Meg) as well as many notable paintings, sculptures, tapestries, drawings, jewellery and stained-glass windows.
