Brussels Frietmuseum, Fries Museum Tickets

The Frietmuseum in Brussels is a must for anyone who wants to learn about one of Belgium's greatest gastronomic passions: French fries. This original and fun museum invites you to discover the history of this iconic food, from its origins in South America to its popularisation in Europe and its consecration as a Belgian national symbol.

The colourful and humorous tour features more than 400 objects and interactive exhibits that explain how potatoes are grown, harvested and transformed, as well as the different techniques used to obtain the perfect frites. You'll also learn about the typical sauces, traditional preparation methods and cultural curiosities surrounding this famous snack.

Housed in a historic building from the 14th century, the Frietmuseum combines history, art and gastronomy in a cosy and original setting. You can also listen to interesting commentary with the included audio guide, which adds context and anecdotes about each exhibition.

And, of course, you can't miss the finishing touch: a visit to the tasting area, where you can try some authentic crispy, golden Belgian frites (not included in the ticket).

Perfect for families, food lovers and curious travellers, the Frietmuseum offers a unique experience that blends culture, humour and flavour.
