STAM turned ten last year... time for a make-over for the permanent exhibition! Since the end of 2020 you can stroll through the new Story of Ghent.
For centuries, the way into the city was through gigantic gates. Gates on the edge of the city, but at the centre of this exhibition. Gates that have long gone and been replaced by dynamic, colourful districts.
Feel free to touch! A fun children’s trail that leads through every room in the museum. Children become merchants, craftspeople, architects or city trippers and participate in city life. They sell cloth, make coats of arms, face façades and work out routes.
De derde zondag van elke maand: een rondleiding waar iedereen kan op intekenen. Omdat een gids dingen vertelt die bijblijven. In oktober 2022 in vaste tentoonstelling 'Het verhaal van Gent'!
