Auctionhouse Maison Jules

History of Auction House Maison Jules

Jo Tondeleir and Henk Dekeyser met years ago at an art auction. They decided to combine their shared passion, interest, and knowledge of art and antiques in the auction house Maison Jules, a name that refers to the Ghent artist Jules De Bruycker (1870-1945).

The first auctions in 2013 took place in the garden of the Carmelite Monastery in Ghent, but in 2015 they purchased their own premises on Dampoortstraat. The near future promises to be exciting once again, as the duo has since acquired the modernist Holy Cross Church in Sint-Amandsberg. From 2021, Maison Jules will move to this unique location. With a distinctive interior, this will become the ultimate venue for art enthusiasts and auction lovers.
