What’s your favorite funny fact of Brussels?
The houses around Grand Place, called Guild Houses.
Associations of artisan producers or merchants with the aim of protecting their common interests. They have ceased to exist for centuries, but the buildings where they worked are still standing, and it’s these buildings that deserve to be admired!
There are 39 around Grand Place. Guild houses can be easily identified because at the top they display an image related to the professional activity they performed.
