    La Maison du Marais, that is the name of the house where Vincent van Gogh lived for a short time, from 1879 to 1880. In this former house in the Belgian mining region of the Borinage you can see an audiovisual performance, as well as a facsimile of the drawing Les Bêcheurs (De spitters ) from the collection of the BAM, the Museum of Fine Arts of Mons.

    The Van Gogh house, a place steeped in history. The "House of the Marais" offers visitors a dive into the daily life of Vincent van Gogh during his stay in the Borinage, from December 1878 to October 1880. It was within these walls that Van Gogh, self-taught, took his first steps on the way of art.

    Do not miss: the reproductions of his works made during his visit but also his literary preferences, his epistolary exchange and the atmospheric room furnished with period furniture.
