Antwerp's golden age came in the seventeenth century, when Rubens worked here, creating baroque paintings of great originality and energy. We'll visit the church where he prayed - and see his tomb; we'll also see the Plantijn press, the biggest publisher in Europe, where Rubens did the cover illustrations, and we'll see the house of his friend and patron Nicolaas Rockox. But it's not just Rubens - plenty of medieval architecture and even a little bit of art nouveau spice up your visit to the Golden Age of Antwerp.
