A museum and monument, MAS - Museum aan de Stroom celebrates the city of Antwerp. Focusing on themes of power, life and death, and metropolis, the museum explores the city's history and position as an important international port. Committed to embracing new media, the museum lets visitors scan QR codes on most objects to hear background information in several different languages. The building is designed to resemble boxes stacked in a spiral tower, and it offers great views of the city. Take the escalator up to the ninth floor, and enjoy views through glass walls as you make your way to the top.

Only visited after museum hours to explore the Panorama and Viewing Gallery. Wonderful experience.. escalators took us all but last floor.. ever opening vistas .. great images of folk around escalators... glimpses of museum exhibitions made me really want to return. Views from the top across city, river and port were stunning. Huge thanks!

Well, it’s big, so big that most of the time it feels but empty. Once a while an exhibition interesting to visit. But most of the time, it’s good for climbing all the way to the roof top to enjoy the panoramic view of the city and the harbor. So worthwhile give it a try. : :
