>> The Clockarium Museum in Brussels

The Clockarium museum is conveniently housed in Schaerbeek, at the entrance to Brussels, in a nice Art Deco house built in 1935 by the architect G. Bossuyt. More than a thousand ceramic mantel clocks are displayed on three floors:

The first floor is devoted to French and Czech art deco ceramic clocks (see a panoramic view).

The second floor is for Belgian clocks.

The third floor is for art deco ceramic clocks of various origins: German, Dutch, Austrian, Italian and unknown.
Also, a room is devoted to decadent clocks from the Fifties till now.

In the cloakroom on the ground floor, antique and collectible clocks former to 1920 are displayed.

Unfortunately, there is no elevator, which makes the visit difficult for people with limited mobility.
