Finding your way

Explore the home and business of the Plantins and the Moretuses on your own, with a visitor’s guide, audio tour, or audio play.

Floor Plan

Visit the Museum Plantin-Moretus in one hour with the floor plan. This plan guides you along the museum’s highlights. You’ll receive the floor plan at the start of your visit.

Visitors Guide

Would you like to take a little more time over your visit? Then use our visitor’s guide to show you around. We deliberately kept explanations in the museum limited so you can enjoy the most authentic visit possible. The visitor’s guide can be used as a supplement if you would like some more information.

Audio play and audio guide

What if you are not much of a reader? You can make use of our audio tour or audio play. 

Audio play

Using new three-dimensional audio techniques, this audio will make it seem as if you have travelled through time and entered a bustling house and publishing company. The audio play is not a classic audio tour; it brings the rooms and its (former) residents to life in an amusing way.

Audio guide

For those who enjoy listening to the story of founder Christophe Plantin and his successors, the Moretus family, there is the tour entitled ‘Plantin visionary publisher’. Available in English, French, German and Dutch.
