This place is awesome! It's great for adults and kids. If you're into history, textiles, typography/art. I could have spent hours here!

A fascinating and well-designed museum! The exhibits cover Ghent’s industrial history with great interactive displays, especially on textiles and printing. The building itself is an attraction (a beautifully restored former cotton mill), and the view from the top floor is amazing. A must-visit if you’re in Ghent!
