Art Nouveau Free Guided Tour

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Grand Place in Brussels to start our Art Nouveau route through the streets of the Belgian capital.

Our first stop will be in front of the avant-garde facade of the Musical Instruments Museum. The building housed the Old England department store in the 19th century. From here we'll take a tram to Bailli, the district with the highest concentration of modernist buildings in Brussels.

Large windows will attract our attention soon after we get off the tram. This is the Tassel Residence, which has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This house designed by the Belgian architect Victor Horta was the first Art Nouveau building in the world.

We'll continue to admire other avant-garde examples of the neighbourhood and stop in front of the Residence of Paul Hankar, the Belgian Art Nouveau architect. We'll appreciate his modernist imprint on the elegant balconies of the Ciamberlani Hotel.

The tour will end after 2 hours in front of the Horta Museum, which you're free to visit.
