Every visitor wants to visit the museum in optimal conditions – understandably enough. This is why groups and schools reserve in advance. That way, we can coordinate group visits more smoothly.
Ever wanted to know what life was like in the Officina Plantiniana? Once you’ve had a visit and printing demonstration daily life in the printing press won’t hold anymore secrets for you.
Guided tours, creative workshops, printing demonstrations and day programmes: come to the museum with your group and make the visit more lively or varied with our group options.
Go back in time with your pupils. Enter the home and publishing house of the world famous Christoffel Plantin. Experience how the famous Antwerp publishing family lived and worked.
Do you have a group or class with special needs or questions? Do you have a special request or are you working on a project? We are happy to make an adapted program for you, tailored to your group.
In the workshop you first view book illustrations, prints and drawings. Then you’ll learn how to make an drypoint etching as you get to work with plexiglass, ink and a centuries-old etching press.
