In Antwerp baroque isn’t just an art, it’s also a lifestyle or a way of living. Just like baroque, the true Antwerpian is dynamic, generous, exuberant and all but modest.
In which languages is this activity/tour/event available? Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Russian
The walk takes you alongside many historical baroque sites. The imposing façades, stunning majestic gates and the lavishly decorated statues are not only true gems, they are also part of a fascinating history, which comes with plenty of anecdotes. You will quickly discover that Rubens, the undisputed master of baroque, continues to inspire present day artists.
Due to its length (2.5 km), narrow pavements, cobblestones and the absence of resting places, this walk is not suitable for people who have trouble walking or for wheelchair users.
