A (hidden) Art Nouveau gem.
In 1841 the Ursuline nuns started a school for young girls (from rich families) in Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-Waver. Pretty soon after its establishment, the Ursuline Institute gained international fame. Around the turn of the century almost a quarter of the students in this renowned boarding school were of foreign origin.
In 1900 the institute built a beautiful winter garden in Art Nouveau. The architect is (still) unknown. The winter garden served as a reception room for the visitors of the hundreds of girls living in the boarding school. https://visit.mechelen.be/en/wintertuin

Art Nouveau (or Jugendstil) is an art movement that was popular in various places in Europe between 1890 and 1914, mainly as a reaction to form-blurring impressionism. The movement experienced a short but intense flowering period, which mainly expanded during the Belle Epoque. #Architecture #LocalSecrets #Trovember #History

ibis Brussels off Grand Place

5/5 Excellent

"Excellent location, room is clean. Very pleasant staff, the only issue was the shower head in my room 101 was in a very awkward spot and very hard to adjust. Other than that, we had a good stay and would stay again! "

Cardo Brussels, Autograph Collection

5/5 Excellent

Would highly recommend the Cardo

"Great stay at the Cardo. Fab suite, great breakfast, lots of choice. Spotlessly clean. Great service. The roof top pool is fab. You have to book a slot but it works well because it’s not over crowded. "
