A Private Heritage Asset
in the Heart of Europe
A protected private mansion of approximately 2,066 sqm — architectural memory, institutional presence, and a landmark address in Brussels' European Quarter.
Banque Brunner — and the first concrete dome of Brussels.
Built around 1860 and long known as Banque Brunner, the property embodies the restrained grandeur of Brussels' 19th-century institutional architecture. Around 1900, architect Léon Govaerts added a remarkable banking hall topped by a concrete dome — recognised as the city's first — creating a rare dialogue between classical residence, civic memory, and monumental light. Recently restored with care, the building combines heritage character with modern comfort.
Surfaces are indicative and have been measured on plan; certified measurements are available upon request.
Two additional upper floors — permitted vertical extension
An additional ~420 sqm at this address — already framed by the surrounding block's approved redevelopment masterplan, which actively supports the addition of upper floors along the corridor.
Subject to all applicable legal, planning, technical, and heritage approvals. Full permit and masterplan documentation available upon request.
A short film of the property.
On Brussels' institutional corridor — between the Royal Park and the European Quarter.
78 Rue de la Loi stands within the diplomatic perimeter of the capital, a few hundred metres from the Royal Palace and Brussels Park, on the axis that connects the historic centre to the European institutions. It is one of the most symbolically charged addresses in the city — a setting for power, diplomacy, and institutional presence.
