Quotes along the way

Historic buildings, squares and streets are the precious beacons of an impressive past: that of the legendary shipping company with the red star in its flag. A guide will take you to various symbolic places, between station and museum and tells compelling stories of land movers.

The words of these land movers evoke atmospheres, smells and sounds - straight to our hearts.

This walk is a beautiful combination with the Red Star Line story within the museum walls. It is also a fine way to make a worthwhile move between station and museum, in either direction.

Tip

Before or after your walk in the city, a museum visit is recommended. This way you will discover the full story of the shipping company and the stories of land movers in full context. You can schedule a visit without a guide or a guided tour.

 

Lunch

If the weather is fine, a picnic with your own packed lunch in the Belvedère Park (on the banks of the Scheldt) is an excellent addition to your museum visit.

In less clement weather, you can picnic in the museum, please email rsl_balie@antwerpen.be.
