    Ninth art

    Posted by Tim Hillyer 28 September 2007

    What is the Ninth Art? Discover its secrets at the shrine to the best examples of the Belgian masters, notably Herge and his Adventures of Tintin.

    Within walking distance of the Gare Du Midi, and ideally placed to fill that wait before boarding the Eurostar, explore a nation's fascination with comic strip heroes.

    Beautifully presented displays carry explanations of the storylines and characters, whilst giving interesting background of the creators and designers.

    A reasonable knowledge of French would be useful, though. The Belgian Comic Strip Centre (Centre Belge de la Bande Dessinee) is in Rue Des Sables.
