Audio play and audio guide
What if you are not much of a reader? You can make use of our audio tour or audio play.
Audio play
Using new three-dimensional audio techniques, this audio will make it seem as if you have travelled through time and entered a bustling house and publishing company. The audio play is not a classic audio tour; it brings the rooms and its (former) residents to life in an amusing way. You can read more about the audio play.
Audio guide
For those who enjoy listening to the story of founder Christophe Plantin and his successors, the Moretus family, there is the tour entitled ‘Plantin visionary publisher’. Available in English, French, German and Dutch.
