Born from a joint desire of the Glass Industry Federation and the City of Charleroi, the Glass Museum of Charleroi has a particular specificity in Wallonia.

Privileged meeting place between the past and the future of the glass material, it is also the living memory of the history of glass in Wallonia, whose wealth is an integral part of the construction of the identity of the region.

Preserving this history but also valuing it is one of the institution’s essential missions

The collections now contain more than 6,000 pieces of glass and tools and cover a very broad period, from Mycenaean times to contemporary glass masterpieces.
