On Heritage Day, come and discover Rubens Castle, the place where Rubens spent the last years of his life. Our enthusiastic guides will immerse you in the history of the castle and take you along the most beautiful spots of the estate.
This year, Heritage Day focuses on intangible heritage. In the outbuildings of Rubens Castle, you can visit our Crafts House, where you can admire the craftsmanship of goldsmith Iris Van Steenwinckel and see her unique jewellery come to life. Feel like smithing yourself? You can, as Van Steenwinckel offers workshops where you can learn to make your own jewellery.
Also be sure to take a look at our crafts and makers market where you can discover local arts and crafts. The artistic activities of Marktistiek vzw bring visitors closer to creative people, and creative people closer to each other.
Round off your visit with a drink in our cosy summer bar!
