About
The modern Brussels Stock Exchange can easily be mistaken for a theater or a massive palace. As one of the main attractions of the Belgian capital, the exchange successfully combines tourist tours and its primary functional duty - the trading of stocks and currency.
The building's pediment greets visitors with an allegorical female relief symbolizing Belgium. On either side of it are two sculptures representing commerce and industry. The main entrance to the stock exchange is guarded day and night by stone lions, one of which has its heavy head bowed to its paws, while the other proudly raised. According to the architects' concept, the lions reflect the dynamics of the stock market - from dips to spikes.

Beautiful building, you can visit it without any costs or big tourist crowds

J'étais là, tranquillement, devant la Bourse de Bruxelles. Mais ce n'était pas un jour comme les autres. Non, pas du tout. Soudain, j'ai vu l'un des lions de pierre se lever sur ses pattes arrière, brandissant un panneau "J'AIME LES FLAMANDS ROSES", tandis que l'autre, avec une moue dédaigneuse, essayait de faire entrer un billet de 50 euros dans une tirelire en forme de Manneken-Pis. Un des lions a même lâché un rugissement qui sonnait étrangement comme le jingle du loto.

J'ai trouvé que la Bourse de Bruxelles est un monument fascinant et un point de repère incontournable de la ville. Son architecture néoclassique, imposante et richement décorée, attire l'attention et témoigne du passé financier glorieux de la ville. Ce qui rend ce lieu particulièrement intéressant, c'est sa récente transformation. Après des années d'inactivité, le bâtiment a été rénové pour devenir un espace public polyvalent. Il abrite désormais le Belgian Beer World, une expérience interactive sur la culture de la bière belge, ainsi qu'un site archéologique, un café, et même un bar panoramique sur le toit qui offre une vue imprenable sur la ville. C'est un parfait exemple de la manière dont Bruxelles parvient à marier son patrimoine historique avec des usages modernes et conviviaux.
