Brussels at its best. No words to express the beauty of these historic monuments. They are simply the best. Words are not enough to describe the beauty and grace that these buildings exhibit in this modern world. They beat the heat out of the world of AI. An ode from the historical architectural era to the world of technology.
Brussels Town Hall (Hotel de Ville), is located in the Grand Place (Grote Markt) in Brussels, Belgium. It is a masterpiece of Brabant Gothic architecture, originally constructed between 1401 and 1455, characterized by its intricate carvings and an asymmetrical facade. The facade is famously asymmetrical, since it is a result of the building being designed and constructed in multiple stages during the 15th C. It features a prominent 96 mtr high tower whose soaring spire is topped with a statue of a 5 mtr tall guilded statue of Saint Michael, the patron saint of Brussels. The entire Grand Place, including the Town Hall, is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is the only medieval remnant of the Grand Place that survived the bombardment of 1695. The building serves as the seat of the municipality of Brussels. The Grand Place itself is often cited as one of the most beautiful central squares in Europe, surrounded by opulent Baroque guildhalls. Our trip to Brussels during 2024, gave us the opportunity of seeing this awesome remarkable structure.
The flower show in the rooms of the city hall is a must see, on the alternate years of the flower carpet in the square. Not as big but equally as spectacular. An immense amount of work has gone into the displays with a different theme in each room, doesn’t take long to walk through but well worth it.
Visited on 14th May 26. Amazing building in the Grand-Place, a must visit when in Bruxelles. Entry fee applicable to visit the interior
We enjoyed our visit to the town hall of Brussels. If you love design and interior from a different time, this will bring you to decades ago. Audio guides are available and it tells you some snippets of information about the different chambers. Each room has its own theme and different design on the ceilings, walls, & furniture. Pros: • Lockers • Fair price of ticket Cons: • It didn’t look like they have an elevator • Toilettes are not available at the moment. • no ramps
