House of European History
Museums
Free museum open 7/7 in Brussels, Belgium, immersing visitors in 19th and 20th century history and European integration.
About us
The House of European History is a forum for learning, reflection and debate, open to audiences from all generations and backgrounds. Our primary mission is to enhance understanding of European history in all its complexity, to encourage the exchange of ideas and to question assumptions. The House presents Europe's history in a way that raises awareness about the multiplicity of perspectives and interpretations. It preserves shared and dividing memories. It exhibits and collects the history of European integration and its foundations. A project of the European Parliament and part of its visitor offer, the House of European History is academically independent. Our transnational collection, our exhibitions and our programmes provide unexpected and inspiring experiences. Through outreach and partnerships, we aim to strengthen the European dimension in debating, exhibiting and learning about history. A place for encounters and exchange, the House's multi-faceted interpretation of the past builds bridges to questions relevant for today's Europe. Visit our website to book a visit, and subscribe to our newsletter to stay up-to-date on our events and live lectures with prominent academics from around the world.

Met 150+ eerstejaars studenten op studiereis naar Brussel? Challenge accepted. 🤝 Vorige week brachten deze Reinwardt-ers een bezoek aan België tijdens hun vijfdaagse studiereis. Brussel, Bruxelles, Brussels – de continue aanwezige mix van het Vlaams, Frans, Engels en nog zoveel andere talen vertellen je hoe internationaal deze belangrijke stad is. Maar hoe is Brussel uitgegroeid tot (Europese) hoofdstad?🇧🇪 Op de planning stonden o.a. een stadswandeling, een bezoek aan het Vossenplein en het House of European History - waar Guido Gerrichhauzen, hoofd van het Learning and outreach department en curator, hen ontving. Ook bezochten de studenten het AfricaMuseum in Tervuren, waar directeur Bart Ouvry hen verwelkomde en waar ze een rondleiding kregen. Op donderdag nam Aline Nyirahumure (coördinator bij het Internationaal Comité en PR-commissaris van KUUMBA) de eerstejaars mee door het Vlaams-Afrikaans Huis. In de middag werd WIELS Contemporary Art Centre bezocht. De laatste dag konden studenten kiezen uit een bezoek aan de Basiliek Koekelberg, het Old Masters Museum, het Magritte Museum en/of Villa Empain - Fondation Boghossian. Dank aan alle betrokkenen voor deze geslaagde week! 👉 Ga jij volgend jaar mee op studiereis naar Brussel? Ontdek of de bachelor Cultureel erfgoed iets voor jou is op de open dag van zaterdag 7 februari. Meld je aan: https://lnkd.in/gPt5B_2
