The BHKS organised a visit to the Red Star Line Museum in Antwerp, with a guided tour on 01 February 2025.
On the authentic site of the historic shipping company on Antwerp's Eilandje, the Museum tells a universal story of hope, dreams and the quest for happiness, based on personal stories of 20th-century emigrants. Starting from the historical story of European emigration via Antwerp to America, the Museum, together with visitors, witnesses and partners, encourages reflection and dialogue about migration in the past, present and future. The Museum cherishes and preserves history and does so on the basis of the personal stories of migrants - connecting their life stories with current social issues through recognisable themes.
In the visit, BHKS members were inspired to appreciate the arts, culture, and history presented through the Museum’s exhibitions.
