  Beautiful park for a nice walk with fountains, sculptures and a small lake further down the hill. The architecture of the buildings around the park is impressive, you can also discover a beautiful art nouveau building. Very close to Schuman and the Commission, also suitable for a lunch break walk and relaxation.

  Square Ambiorix is a public square and park in the Quartier des Squares district of Brussels. The park is well tended and has been design in the french style with a regular and rectangular shaped interspersed with paths laid out in geometric patterns over the well kept lawns, flower beds, fountains, sculptures and a playground. The area is a well to do district and there are many fine buildings around the park, especially to the north and east. For Art Nouveau fans, there are mainly fine building built in this style including the Villa Germaine and Maison Saint-Cyr. The park is away from the main tourist circuit in Brussels, but worth visiting if you have the time.

  “Maison de Saint Cyr” The Saint Cyr house was designed by Gustave Strauven from Brussels, a pupil of Victor Horta with whom he completed the Eetvelde and Peuple houses. Strauven was only 21 years old and his father, Pierre Arnold Strauven, was a gardener. The young architect was very interested in the use of new technologies and collaborated in the magazine "La Gerge", of Art Nouveau decoration and architecture. The house is on the Ambiorix square in Brussels and was built between 1901 and 1903 as the home of the painter Georges de Saint Cyr. Its asymmetrical facade is only 4 meters wide and is also divided into 4 floors in height. It has an ornamentation in glass and wrought iron that is a fantasy, with unique details. Perhaps it was inspired by the gardens that his father tended and he would see as a child. Throughout the twentieth century it was considered excessive and extravagant and was even despised by some critics of Art Nouveau. To me it seems to be a masterpiece full of the strength, audacity and freedom of youth, talent and everything that surrounds that first flight after leaving the nest and starting one's own path.
