Zebrastraat

Why go

Charles van Rysselberghe's housing scheme gives this place a shape unlike a conventional gallery: dwellings curve around a shared court. Later restoration kept that architecture while introducing cultural uses. Art installations, including Nick Ervinck's yellow roof work, make the site a worthwhile detour for visitors interested in how Ghent adapts older buildings.

What to look for

• The elliptical courtyard shows the layout of the former workers' housing complex.
• Nick Ervinck's yellow roof installation sets contemporary art against the historic architecture.
• Temporary exhibitions and events change what can be seen inside.

Useful to know

• Check the current exhibition or event before planning an interior visit; this is also a residential site.
• Treat the courtyard architecture as the main fixed feature, with gallery access dependent on the programme.
