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.

Depending on availability, pupils can eat their packed lunch on our Upperdeck. Therefore, please inquire in advance via rsl_balie@antwerpen.be. Weather permitting, a picnic in Belvedere Park (on the banks of the Scheldt) is an excellent addition to the museum visit.
