Ostend, in the footsteps of James Ensor

Ostend and James Ensor...

The famous painter James Ensor (1860-1949) lived in Ostend for most of his life. In 2024, it will be 75 years since Ensor passed away. The Ensor year pays tribute to this Belgian master, both in Ostend and in Antwerp. We walk past famous and less famous areas to get a taste of the city. A visit of the Ensor house can't be missed!
After lunch, we continue our walk and we go on to admire the greatest Belgian painters after 1830 in the 'Mu.Zee' of art. Excited? We would love to take you!
