Verbeke Foundation

You won‘t believe the amount and variety of stuff at this place. Sometimes it feels like a 300 year-old cabinet of curiosities, sometimes like an experimental garden for budding architects. Sculpture is mixed with ginormous pieces of technological scrap, including the biggest helicopter I‘ve ever seen. In between there are cages with wonderfully colourful tropical birds, singing their hearts out. Bits of art which you will love and naturally some that you will hate. If you visit, bring enough time with you because there are so many crazy corners to explore.

Really Amazing museum with great art pieces. Pannek works were showing when I visited. Also there are some artworks that are high on ethical choices but also quite interesting. Especially because my friend explained how the museum came to be and it makes sense of why there are weird collections. Definitely a whole day session or more to view the full museum.

Nice place to visit. It can take hours to explore the whole territory but it definitely worths it. Funny and unusual thing about the place - you can stay overnight in sculpture of anus 🙈

Interesting set up of art display, indoor and outdoor, modern paintings, sculptures. Original, fun.

Lots of cool art to see here. You'll need a few hours to explore the huge terrain.

Private art museum, large outside and inside areas. Very broad spectrum of exhibits, a bit eclectic but perfectly lovable. Friendly staff. Card payment only at the ticket office - the café accepts cash, if you want to pay w/ card at the café, they send you to the ticket office to pay there. We spent a Friday afternoon both inside and outside and liked it a lot 🤩 Some areas outside could use a bit more gardening and some exhibits were showing slight signs of decay, not sure if a funding issue (post corona...) or part of the concept? As we were passing through, we spent the night in a hotel in Hulst (NL) nearby, I can highly recommend the combination.

Amazing place which I keep on visiting. It's like reading a good book, the story stays with you, for a very long time. A place where beginning and known artists find their place. People like Geert and Carla should be cherished for the love they put in this foundation. Loving every bit of it.

It’s a really nice museum! It’s more like a collection that the owner allow the public to see it. It’s a nice place to spend time on afternoon with your family, friends or classmates. The exterior is full of architecture/ spatial design object and installation. The food from the bar is good and cheap.

Amazing open air art museum! A private collection spread over a huge field. And a nice coffee/bar inside. Take Time an afternoon to come visit (kids friendly) the impressive structures and installations spread all over the foundation.
