WebsiteThis enormous museum, part of Brussels's Royal Museums of Art and History, was once the largest in the world. All artistic disciplines, except painting, are represented. The first section displays a collection of ancient Egyptian (one room alone is filled with mummies and sarcophagi), Islamic, Oriental, Greek and Roman art. The second section is dedicated to non-European art, and the third section houses a collection of European decorative arts spanning the 7th to the 17th Centuries. Other fascinating collections abound, such as a beautiful collection of glass and ceramics with one room dedicated to Delftware. Some of the display cases were designed by master of Art Nouveau Victor Horta.
