Brussels, capital of Art Nouveau

It was in 1893 that the famous Brussels architect Victor Horta put the finishing touches to the Hôtel Tassel, thus establishing the Brussels Art Nouveau style.

In fact, the impressively modern façade and the magnificent interior with elaborate stained glass windows, mosaics and wrought-iron elements were to make architectural history: In 2023, 130 years later, Brussels is now celebrating Art Nouveau in all its diversity and splendor, once again positioning itself as the capital of this architectural and artistic movement that has left its mark in numerous countries.
