After several years of closure, MusAfrica is reopening its doors with a clearly stated ambition: to offer a museum firmly rooted in its time, accessible to all and open to the world. Here, each space has been redesigned for a more immersive experience, where you become the protagonist of your discoveries.
In a completely renovated building, MusAfrica has created a contemporary museography that brings its collections back to life. More than just an exhibition of objects, it is a dynamic narrative that invites visitors to explore, understand and question the links between Belgium and Africa, Central Africa in particular.

Plus qu’une simple exposition d’objets, c’est une mise en récit dynamique qui invite à explorer, comprendre et questionner les liens établisentre la Belgique et l’Afrique, l’Afrique centrale en particulier.
Located in a completely restored neighbourhood, opposite the municipal library, MusAfrica is part of a true crossroads of knowledge and cultures. Designed as a place for exchange and learning, it aims to reach a wide audience, from the merely curious to the most demanding art lovers.

MusAfrica is supported by a team of volunteers consisting of researchers, experts and enthusiasts, both Belgian and of African descent. United by the same ambition, they work hard every day to make the museum an inspiring place full of life.
