Plantin Moretus Museum Antwerp - Paul Ferguson - 10-18-2023
The Plantin–Moretus Museum (Dutch: Plantin-Moretusmuseum) is a printing museum in Antwerp, Belgium which focuses on the work of the 16th-century printers Christophe Plantin and Jan Moretus. It is located in their former residence and printing establishment, the Plantin Press, at the Vrijdagmarkt (Friday Market) in Antwerp, and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2005. It offers an exceptional insight into how printed books were produced in the 16th and 17th centuries.
