Brussels-Capital

Brussels-Capital is widely recognised in Belgium for the UNESCO-listed Grand Place, Brussels’s historic central square. The region is Belgium’s bilingual capital, officially using French and Dutch, and a major centre of European governance: the European Commission, Council of the European Union and European Parliament all maintain key presences here. The modest Senne, or Zenne, runs through the city, although much of its course is now covered. Guildhalls around the Grand Place, Victor Horta’s Art Nouveau buildings and the Atomium trace Brussels’s path from medieval civic centre to modern international capital.
