Inside Wannes' Study

Wannes Van de Velde’s study

We have set up Wannes Van de Velde’s study in our temporary offices at 9 Gildekamersstraat in Antwerp. You can look inside through the window facing the street. Alongside musical instruments, you’ll see his books, rod puppets, photographs, drawings and paintings. But also sheet music and song lyrics in his own handwriting. Neatly arranged as if Wannes might walk into his study at any moment.

Carillon Concerts

Sound in the city? That must be the carillon!

Our city carillonneurs Koen Van Assche and Liesbeth Janssens play the carillon throughout the year. In this way, they keep the tradition alive.
