Some pieces in our collection are included in the 'Topstukken' list of the Flemish Community. Each one is rare and essential for the collective memory of Flanders. Discover them below.
Since 2022, STAM has been collecting ‘rebellious heritage’—materials from protests and debates that set Ghent in motion. From mobility plans to climate action, this collection brings the voices of residents and activist groups to the forefront.
The museum collection continues to grow. STAM is always looking for new objects to tell the story of Ghent. In addition to historical objects, we also seek contemporary pieces that reflect the changing city today. Discover some of our recent acquisitions below!
Don’t be surprised if you see items from STAM’s collection elsewhere in Belgium or abroad. They are regularly loaned for special exhibitions.
