♿ Wheelchair accessible

The Musée Félicien Rops in Namur is dedicated to the life and work of Félicien Rops (1833-1898), one of Belgium's most provocative and talented 19th-century artists. A painter, engraver and illustrator, Rops was known for his bold and Symbolist works. The museum, housed in a historic building in the old town of Namur, contains an extensive collection of drawings, engravings, lithographs and paintings showcasing the artist's versatile oeuvre.

Accessibility at the museum is partial. The permanent collection is accessible by lift, and tours are available for accompanied persons in a wheelchair or with walking difficulties. The first floor with temporary exhibitions is, however, only accessible via stairs. The museum does not have its own reserved PMR parking spaces, but the nearest car parks (Beffroi, Confluence, Place Saint-Aubain) offer PMR spaces. Adapted toilets are available. The museum is Access-i certified.

The Musée Félicien Rops is located in the historic centre of Namur, approximately 15 minutes' walk from the railway station. Admission is reduced for holders of a European Disability Card. A visit to the museum combines excellently with a walk through Namur's old town and a visit to the Citadel.
