Antwerp: history meets modernity
Book tickets
Station grandeur!
Even the arrival is an experience on its own. Antwerp Central Station is a stunning blend of neoclassical and modern architecture, featuring a grand facade and a majestic dome.
Inside, intricate ironwork, ornate details, and gleaming marble floors create an atmosphere of timeless elegance and grandeur.
No wonder this station is often described as "Railway Cathedral".
Plenty of new things to discover
Old squares take you hundreds of years back in time. But is Antwerp old-fashioned? Not at all! Many old museums have recently been given a major renovation and the city was also one of the first cities to introduce public share bikes.
Take the ferry with the locals to the left bank where you can enjoy a walk or discover "Het eilandje" or PAKT with a real urban farm!
A walk to enjoy
While strolling along the banks of the Schelde River, you will discover many secret alleyways with Burgundian restaurants and local boutiques.
Giraffes? Careful kids probably already saw their long necks from the train, as the beautiful old zoo is right next to the station.
Hungry? Try one of the many Chinese eateries, the authentic Jewish falafel, or, of course, an oyster with Cava!
