Museum Hof van Busleyden
65 Frederik de MerodestraatRecently opened this is a great place to visit.
This is a Holocaust museum which is a little upsetting in its content. However, we should never forget this took place.
The musuem is very well laid out with full audio guides in multiple languages. From the top of the building you get a full panoramic view of Mechelen on a good weather day.
