Sightseeing in Brussels

The rebel spirit

Where rue du Chêne meets the rue de l'Etuve is the Manneken Pis, symbolising the rebellious and joking spirit of the Brussels people. Created in 1630 by Jérôme Duquesnoy Snr, the original was the subject of several attempts to steal it. Since 1698, the custom has been to offer a piece of clothing. So today the famous statue now has a wardrobe that would fill an entire room of the City museum.

Une statuette de fontaine qui peu plaire ou décevoire. Aller la voire de bonne heure le matin avant l'arrivée des hordes de tourites.

Heureusement qu'il y avait un attroupement de touristes asiatiques qui se faisaient prendre en photo devant, sinon je l'aurais aisément raté depuis la Grand-Place... Il est vraiment tout petit et plutôt insignifiant...Préférez les boutiques des grands chocolatiers belges aux alentours : le chocolat y est excellent !
