Individual visit

The Sewer Museum invites you on an extraordinary journey. Immerse yourself in the history of the underground urban landscape by following the meandering path of the Senne, entering deeper and deeper into the bowels of the city. Soak up the atmosphere of a real sewer collector! Learn about sewer construction and repair, the hard work of sewage workers… not to mention the city’s water cycle. A living museum – it’s one of a kind!

 

Practical information

  • The museum can be visited without a guide

PRACTICAL INFORMATION


Little hands like to touch everything ...

Despite the fact that the museum is cleaned regularly, the main drain and the walkway along the River Senne may be dirty.

Therefore, the Museum asks parents with toddlers to be particularly careful.
