For more than 500 years Antwerp and diamonds have formed a brilliant combination. Thousands of Antwerp diamond workers ensure that 'Cut in Antwerp' is the quality label worldwide, even though the diamond quarter only covers one square kilometer near the Central Station. A Diamond Walk will lead you through this interesting neighbourhood and teach you all about the different facets of diamonds. The Antwerp Diamond Museum, near the Koningin Astridplein in front of Central Station, opened its doors on 25 May 2002.
