Comic Strip Centre and Belle Époque Pubs Tour.
Visit the Belgian Comic Strip Centre, a masterpiece of Art Nouveau and designed by Victor Horta. This is not a private residence, but a ‘trade temple’ inaugurated in 1906. Perhaps visit the former Old England department store, now home to the Musical Instruments Museum, an Art Nouveau building constructed in 1899 out of girded steel and glass. Continue with a walking tour of pre-war Brussels pubs, some of which have kept their Art Nouveau or Art Deco decoration (2 drinks included). Enjoy dinner together in a local Art Nouveau Brassiere with authentic Belgium Cuisine.
