This one shows 10 centuries of maps of Europe from the collections of the Royal Library of Belgium. And it's free!
If you are interested in maps this is a definite must see because there are some real beauties in the exhibit. You can visit un till 8-2-2008.
When we we're there there was also another free exhibit about critical hagiography (=> stories about the lives of saints) which was very interesting. There were some really beautiful illuminated books there. This exhibit has ended but there may be a new one soon.
Check out the site of the library: http://www.kbr.be/ (Dutch and French!)
There are also some really interesting virtual exhibits on the site: http://www.kbr.be/actualites/expos/virtuelles/virtuelles_nl.html
