BRUEGEL HOTSPOTS

In 2019, we are celebrating the life and work of Pieter Bruegel, 450 years after his death. This year is the ideal time to visit his hometown. In an impressive series of exhibitions and events, you will discover what an exceptional artist he was, the extent of his influence on his contemporaries and, in particular, on the many artists who came after him. After you have admired the work of Bruegel and his contemporaries, go out into the countryside to discover the landscapes that inspired Bruegel.
