M for Museum Leuven

M. M for Museum Leuven. That's the name of the sequel to the Vander Kelen-Mertens municipal museum. M is the name of a new building and a new concept. That building will house early and modern art inspired by the city's diversity: Leuven the historical city of art, Leuven the innovative knowledge base... On September 20th 2009 M will take possession of a complex designed by architect Stéphane Beel. It will be the city's largest cultural institution and an important new landmark. M will open in 2009 with a remodelled permanent collection and exhibitions of work by Rogier van der Weyden and Jan Vercruysse.
