Organized by the Brussels City Museum, this historical walk takes you from the Grand Place through the neighborhoods where the gay and lesbian community used to gather in the 19th and 20th centuries: the Galeries Saint-Hubert,
Rue des Bouchers, the Bourse, and the Marché au Charbon. 

Filled with fascinating anecdotes, the tour explores how these places have changed and evolved over time along with society. Celebrating Brussels’ rich diversity, the tour ends at the RainbowHouse, a welcoming space for the entire LGBTQIAP+ community.
