Rubenshuis
thumb|right|200px|upright|The Rubenshuis exterior, as seen from the Wapper The is the former home and workshop of Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640) in Antwerp. Purchased in 1610, Rubens had the Flemish townhouse renovated and extended on the basis of designs by Rubens himself. After the renovations, the house and its courtyard garden had the outlook of an Italian palazzo, which reflected the artistic ideals of Rubens. The ensemble is now a museum dedicated mainly to the work of Rubens and his contemporaries.

Rubenshuis är ett personmuseum i Antwerpen i Belgien i Peter Paul Rubens tidigare ateljé och bostad. Peter Paul Rubens lät börja bygga bostadshuset på dåvarande Vaartstraat, nuvarande Wapper, år 1609, ett år efter att ha ingått giftermål med Isabella Brant. Det låg vid denna tid vid kanalen Herentalse Vaart. Rubens ritade själv huset, baserat på studier i italiensk renässanspalatsarkitektur. Huset har en innergård, som öppnar upp mot den barockträdgård, som han också skapade. Antwerpens stad köpte huset 1937 och det öppnades för allmänheten 1946 efter en omfattande renovering.
