In the large room on the ground floor, under a monumental stone vault sculpted with patterns of rolled ribbons, fantastic masks and protruding moldings, temporary exhibitions are presented. The staircase located in the South turret leads to the permanent collections. In the first room, sculptures evoke the religious art of the Southern Netherlands from the 16th to the 18th century. The history of Saint-Amand is also explored thanks to some rare vestiges from the Romanesque period, 17th century pavement tiles and documents. The second room, more important, presents a panorama of Amandinese earthenware from the 18th to the 20th century with original and refined decorations and industrial objects using different techniques. Museum open: Wednesday and Friday, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Sunday and public holidays (except 1/1, 1/11 and 12/25), from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. Free entry
