The Brabançonne

Statue: The Brabançonne

The statue was originally positioned in the Grand Place as one of a number that were scattered around Brussels on a temporary basis to celebrate the 1918 Armistice. After some time in storage it was brought out to take up its present permanent position to mark the Centenary of Belgium Independence, this second inauguration being on 16 November 1930.
