Why Go
Belgium is one of the homes of the comic strip, and this museum tells its story from Hergé's Tintin to today, with original drawings and a large reading room. It fills a textile warehouse that Horta designed in 1906, with a glass roof over the great hall.
Outside, the Comic Book Route links dozens of murals of comic heroes painted on walls across the city.
