The Grand Place (or Grote Markt in Dutch) is the central square of Brussels. The square is surrounded by opulent guildhalls, each representing a different trade or profession.
The current bronze statue was created by sculptor Jérôme Duquesnoy the Elder in 1619, but it replaced an older stone version dating back to at least the 15th century. The statue has been a symbol of Brussels for over 400 years.
The carillon is integrated into a large wall clock that features 24 bells. The clock face is adorned with twelve bronze statues, each representing a key figure from Belgian history or folklore.
The current palace was largely built in the late 19th century on the site of a previous structure dating back to the Middle Ages. King Leopold II significantly expanded and renovated the palace, giving it its present-day appearance.
The Church of Our Blessed Lady of the Sablon was originally built in the 14th century by the Guild of Crossbowmen of Brussels to house a miraculous statue of the Virgin Mary, which was believed to have healing powers. This statue attracted many pilgrims.
The Palace of Justice has a monumental facade featuring a large dome, rising 104 meters high.
Built for the 50th Anniversary of Belgian Independence: Cinquantenaire Park was created to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Belgian independence in 1880. The centerpiece of Cinquantenaire Park is the magnificent Triumphal Arch, completed in 1905.
