With the arrival of the esteemed Latinist Roger Bragard, curator between 1957 and 1968, larger budgets became available from the Ministry of Culture, as exhibits were renovated, new personnel were hired, concerts were again organised, and new rare pieces were collected. His efforts were pursued by his successors René de Maeyer (1968–1989), (1989–1995), and Malou Haine (1995–2009).
