Antwerp offers a rich day-trip experience for anyone interested in history, culture, and urban exploration. The city played a key role in European trade during the 16th century and retains architectural and historical landmarks from that period. The Red Star Line Museum presents personal stories of migration from Europe to North America, offering insight into global movements and social history. The MAS (Museum aan de Stroom) provides exhibitions on Antwerp’s international connections, urban development, and cultural heritage and a stunning view from the rooftop terrace. Both museums are within walking distance of the historic port area, making it possible to explore the city’s layered past in a single day.


D2130 and D2140 inbounds as well as their guest families and club representatives are cordially invited to this day full of discovery, culture and fun. This is an excellent opportunity to meet other students and host families of District 2130 and 2140, to exchange experiences and to create beautiful memories.
