Migration Museum

The MigratieMuseumMigration opened its doors in Molenbeek on 12 October 2019, to mark the 50th anniversary of Foyer asbl (the non-profit organisation that founded the museum).

The museum tells the story of immigrant workers, the first arrivals at Le Petit Château, expatriates, refugees, Europeans who moved freely within the EU and everyone else. It also pays tribute to the many migrants who have helped to shape the city, which today boasts some 180 nationalities.

The MigratieMuseumMigration showcases the many unique stories of migration.
