The Comic Strip Route in Brussels (French: Parcours BD de Bruxelles) consists of over 50 large-format murals in the city of Brussels. The first comic strip wall was designed in 1991.
After the removal of the façade advertising in Brussels city center at the beginning of the 1990s, it became apparent that some of the building façades below were in need of renovation. This was the reason for the first comic strip wall in the Rue du Marché au Charbon (Broussaille, Frank Pé. July 1991). Initially, several other house facades were dedicated to Brussels cartoonists, later others from Belgium and today also to cartoonists from abroad. Some examples of the current collection are Tintin (Tintin and Snowy) in the Rue de l'Étuve, Astérix & Obélix in the Rue de la Buanderie, Lucky Luke (Rue de la Buanderie), Spirou (Rue Notre-Dame de Grâces), Gaston Lagaffe (Rue de l'Écuyer), Les Schtroumpfs (The Smurfs), Carrefour de l'Europe 3 (Passage Hilton),[1] Jommeke (Rue de la Chanterelle), LGBT by Ralf König (Rue de la Chaufferette) and Le roi des mouches by Mezzo (Rue Stiernet). The comic strip route is still being expanded and redesigned today.
