EvaJune 5, 2016One of the best museums in Antwerp in a great historical building. Several texts are also in English and French, I hope there is a good multilingual guidebook available.
Kelly Van RensbergenSeptember 16, 2014Probably one of my favourite Belgian museums. If you want a detailed history of the Red Star Line with a focus on the people who found a new life and home across the Atlantic, look no further.Upvoted 4 weeks ago
Sofie 🐼May 16, 2014It's a very noisy museum but I like the concept a lot. The lookout is free and has the same opening hours as the museum. Don't forget to buy a fancy poster at the museumshop!
Akgün GÜNGÖRENSeptember 19, 2017It is about 20min walk from city centre and 5min walk from Mas Museum (very cool building). The museum is fascinating, very rich content. Absolutely recommended.- Tunke LauriksSeptember 9, 2015Great museum, really interesting and lovely view at the view point. Very friendly service and a MAGNIFICENT building!
Richard WassingApril 22, 2022Really interesting museum, about hope and fear. The 3rd class passengers from all over Europe first had to shower for 1 hour and got desinfected to may enter the ship, you can actually smell them!
Kevin van DunOctober 14, 2014A history is told that most will not know about, so learn about it in this wonderful museum! Absolutely a must see when visiting Antwerp.
Here’s the story of how people took everything they had to take a chance in the land of opportunities...Their long journey is illustrated with pictures, maps, objects and real stories!
Ilja BakkerOctober 18, 2014A wonderful story told about thrum migration of people. Helps you understand why refugees should also have a right to live anywhere where there is no war.- Jack SmithSeptember 30, 2017The background audio throughout the whole museum is very depressing and eerie
4sq SUs BelgiumSeptember 11, 2016Did you know that Albert Einstein was among the 2 million adventurers and fortune-seekers brought from Antwerp to New York by the Red Star Line between 1873 and 1935?
Katrien SterckxDecember 11, 2014Beautiful place packed with history. Touching personal stories. Nice multimedia
Craig OlogyMay 4, 2014Please make better use of English. The little guide doesn't match very well with the exhibition.- Jack SmithSeptember 28, 2017Only way to reach the observation tower is going through the museum exhibition first.
A museum that moves you with it's human stories!

Myriam Van der SteenNovember 4, 2015Neem je tijd. Dit museum vertelt de geschiedenis via zeer persoonlijke verhalen en op een zeer transparante en aangename manier. Ook voor kinderen heel bevatbaar. Een aanrader.
Een fantastisch museum! Verhalen waar je kippenvel van krijgt. Multimedia om u tegen te zeggen. En een mooie inrichting. Must-see!
Katrien AckxDecember 13, 2013Gloednieuw museum en dat is eraan te zien! Multimedia, interessante verhalen en een zeer mooi pand. Must-do!
Ann DecruyOctober 13, 2014Zeer interessante tentoonstelling over de emigratie naar Canada en de USA.- Toni SchuermanNovember 21, 2013Wat jammer niet kunnen betalen met een bankkaart in de cafetaria in een gloednieuw museum met internationale allures. T.S.
Naomi IlsbrouxAugust 24, 2014Niet al te veel tekst, en dat is goed. Alles wordt duidelijk en beeldend uitgelegd.
