The famous printer Christoffel Plantijn lived in Antwerp circa 1549. He was renowned throughout Europe for quality books and prints; however, he was also an innovator and transformed cottage-house printing into a pre-industrial enterprise. He lived in this unforgettable patrician house in the older part of Antwerp from 1576 onwards, and it was called the "Golden Compass." The tradition was carried on by his son-in-law, Jan Moretus. You can visit the old Officina Plantiana with authentic printing presses (some of the oldest in the world) and an impressive library of books.
