    The John Selbachmuseum in Maaseik, Belgium, offers visitors a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the region. Located in a historic building, the museum showcases a collection of religious art and artifacts, with a focus on medieval paintings and sculptures. Visitors appreciate the well-preserved artworks, particularly the intricate details of the Flemish primitives. The museum's compact size allows for an intimate viewing experience, though some find the layout a bit cramped. The staff is generally described as knowledgeable and helpful, enhancing the overall experience. While the museum provides informative displays, some visitors note that more comprehensive English translations would be beneficial. The John Selbachmuseum may not be extensive, but it offers a worthwhile experience for those interested in religious art and local history. However, its specialized focus might not appeal to all visitors, and some feel the admission price is a bit high for the size of the collection.
