Antwerp Story – Stone Castle
In 1221 Antwerp received city rights from the Duke of Brabant. Since then, the city has had a rich history with many stories. This tour takes you through The Antwerp Story in the oldest building in Antwerp: Het Steen. We discover merchants and entrepreneurs who had contact with the whole world in the 16th century. A century later, Antwerp was known for its artists. Rubens, Jordaens and Van Dyck are still names associated with Baroque and the city at the river Scheldt. Antwerp is still famous today, for example in fashion and gastronomy. Antwerp is also the second largest port in Europe.
