Welcome to Rubenshuis

The King Baudouin Foundation has acquired an exceptional work of art by Peter Paul Rubens at the TEFAF Maastricht fine art fair at the request of the Rubenshuis. This double-sided sheet from 1607 features a drawing and a handwritten letter by Rubens. The work is on display in Rubens Experience until the end of November 2026.

During the renovation of the artist’s residence, the art collection of the Rubenshuis travels to numerous museums and other locations both in Belgium and abroad. This way, the artworks remain accessible to the public even while the house is closed.

The Rubenshuis is more than a museum. Because Rubens was more than a painter. The museum is undergoing a radical transformation. The universe of the idiosyncratic artist will be given more breathing space. The renovation and reopening will take place in phases. The historical artist's residence is temporarily closed for restoration. Rubens Experience, the library and the garden are already buzzing with activity. Get to know the renovated Rubenshuis.
