Description
Illuminated Museum of the City of Brussels on the Grote Markt, central square of Brussels, Belgium, which is considered as one of the most beautiful squares in Europe.
The building dates between 1401 and 1455 and it was rebuilt after the bombardment of Brussels by French troops in 1695.
It became known as the King's House, although no king has ever lived there. It is currently known as the Maison du roi (King's House) in French, though in Dutch it continues to be called the Broodhuis (Breadhall), after the market whose place it took.
