INDIVIDUAL VISIT

The museum course has three 'rooms', one on each level of the building: the Wonder room, the Leie room and the Treasury.

The WONDER ROOM is a type of laboratory, a DIY-place,  where you can interactively discover often overlooked applications of flax, its significance in today's world and its potential for the future.

In the LEIE ROOM on the first floor you travel back to the past. Here, the story of the Golden River is told. With a selection of objects, work tools and machines from the collection, photos, film, animations, testimonials and interactive maps, the economic development of the region of Lys is displayed, with the flax industry as its driving force.

Lace and damask of Courtrai are presented in a contemporary exhibition on the 'Golden rooftop'. In this TREASURY the design focuses on the esthetical experience of selected items from our large collection.
