2-Hour Walking Tour in Brussels: Fall and Rise of Art Nouveau
VISIT ONLY IN SPANISH.
The Brussels region has 19 "communes" or town councils. Specifically, in Saint-Gilles and Ixelles there are several of the most notable houses of Art-Nouveau architecture, created by the most innovative architects of the late 19th century. Do you want to discover them? (All houses will be seen from the outside, an interior visit is not included in any of them).
Learn about the most used techniques in the world of Art-Nouveau. What is sgraffito, and how is it different from frescoes? What was the first Art-Nouveau house? Discover the remains of Victor Horta's Maison du Peuple.
All this and much more on a three-kilometer tour of the outskirts of Brussels, where you can admire some of the most beautiful streets of the Belgian capital.
