Work and textiles share the focus with industry at Ghent's Museum of Industry, Work and Textiles, known in Dutch as Museum over industrie, arbeid en textiel, or MIAT. The emphasis reflects the city's history: Ghent was at the centre of the Flanders textile region. The museum is an Anchor point on the European Route of Industrial Heritage, a network that links key sites of Europe's industrial past, which makes it a natural stop for visitors interested in that history.
Founded in 1976, the museum holds official recognition as a museum in Flanders. Its building is credited to the architects Serafinus De Taeye and Dirk Boncquet.
