In the early sixteenth century, Mechelen was the capital of the Burgundian Netherlands under Margaret of Austria, and the future Charles V was raised there. The Hof van Busleyden is the brick palace of a councillor of that court, with a courtyard, galleries and a garden, and its museum tells of that golden age: the art, the music and life in the city.
