Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp: the KMSKA’s museum within a museum

The KMSKA reopened in 2022 after eleven years and more than €100 million. KAAN Architecten built a second museum inside the 1890 palace, and more than 570,000 people came in 2025.

Hopper, the jazz cafΓ© opposite the KMSKA, has played since 1991

Hopper opened on 23 October 1991 opposite Antwerp’s Royal Museum of Fine Arts. It is named after Edward Hopper and has had Toots Thielemans on its stage.
