On Heritage Day 2026, KBR invites young and old to discover heritage from its most playful side. This year’s edition is all about humour: laughter, wonder and a touch of mischief through the centuries.
During your visit, you will discover that people in the Middle Ages and the early modern period enjoyed jokes just as much as we do today. Medieval manuscripts teem with funny figures, bizarre animals and absurd scenes, while texts and plays reveal how humour could connect, challenge and amuse.
On the occasion of Heritage Day, the KBR museum is free to visit. In addition, KBR is organising a number of free activities for families, curious visitors and heritage lovers. Places are limited: advance booking is recommended.
