Turnhout’s cultural landscape is defined by its industrial heritage and regional history. This collection includes the National Museum of the Playing Card, featuring historic printing presses and steam engines, and the Begijnhofmuseum, set within a UNESCO World Heritage site. Visitors can explore the archaeological and social history of the Taxandria region at the Huis Metteneye or view contemporary international art exhibitions at Kunstlocatie Würth. These institutions provide insight into the city’s unique position as a world center for card production and its centuries-old religious traditions.
