If you’re looking to fully take advantage all the city has to offer, stop by STAM first to fully immerse yourself in the town’s history. The 300m² map of Ghent on which visitors can walk is a unique way to get a lay of the land before continuing your visit. A truly modern and multi-media museum opened in 2010, this isn’t a traditional or staid offering, but one that illustrates both the past and the future. From a tomb from the 1200’s to the temporary exhibits exploring the concept of urbanity, prepare to be impressed.
