About Exhibition Center Grand Place
The Grand Place, also known as the Grote Markt in Dutch, is the central square of Brussels, Belgium. Renowned for its decorative and aesthetic richness, the Grand Place is considered one of Europe’s most beautiful city squares, if not the world.
The Grand Place dates back to the 10th century. It has been a focal point of social and commercial life for centuries. The square has witnessed many historical events, including the execution of Protestant martyrs in 1523 and the bombardment by French troops in 1695, which led to its reconstruction.
Opulent guild houses surround the square, the striking City Hall, and the King’s House or Maison du Roi (which houses the Brussels City Museum). The architecture blends Gothic, Baroque, and Louis XIV styles, making it a remarkable example of the eclectic mix of European architectural trends.
One of the most iconic buildings on the Grand Place is the City Hall, easily recognizable by its distinctive spire topped by a statue of Saint Michael slaying a demon. The building dates back to the 15th century and is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture.
The guild halls that line the square were initially built as headquarters for the city’s various guilds. Each guild hall has unique architectural elements and decorations that reflect its guild.
Cultural Activities
The Grand Place is a hub of cultural activity, hosting numerous events throughout the year. The most famous is the Flower Carpet, held every two years in August when the square is covered with a carpet of begonias arranged in stunning patterns. Recognizing its outstanding value and importance, the Grand Place was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1998. Today, the Grand Place is a major tourist attraction in Brussels. It’s admired for its aesthetic and historical significance and its lively atmosphere with its many shops, cafés, and restaurants.Professional Exhibition Stand Builder at Grand Place
