Museum van Elsene

This Museum first opened in the early 1980s, in what was formerly the Municipal Abbatoirs. In 1892 even an abbatoir was supposed to be a work of art. This museum specializes in modern art and is particularly renowned for its vast collection of original posters. There's a special hall dedicated to the great Belgian surrealist painter René Magritte, elsewhere you can see works by Henri Permeke, André Delvaux and Pablo Picasso. Check website for closing dates.
