The Musée Magritte Museum is the world reference centre regarding the study of the artist.
It opened on 2 June 2009 in the Altenloh Hotel (a building of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium) and reached no less than 500.000 visitors within one year!

The museum displays the works of the surrealist artist, which belong to the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium and which are mainly the result of purchases as well as of the legacies Irène Hamoir-Scutenaire and Georgette Magritte. Many private collectors, as well as public and private institutions have contributed to the Musée Magritte Museum project by lending their masterpieces.

From 7 September 2010 to 2 January 2011 The Menaced Assassin (L' Assassin menacé), from the MOMA (The Museum of Modern Art), New York, will join its companion piece The Secret Player (Le Joueur Secret).
