Anderlecht Béguinage and its collection

The Beguinage of Anderlecht is a small beguinage dating from about 1250 near the church of St. Peter and St. Guido. The oldest traces are 14th-century and a dozen beguines lived there. The museum paints a picture of how they lived on a daily basis. There is also attention to Anderlecht itself, about the former rural commune and guild life. There is also attention to the Romans and the Franks and the construction of the Charleroi canal in the 19th century that marked the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
