Square of the 21 July

Adjoining the Royal Estate, opposite the Church of our Lady of Laeken with its cemetery, the Square of the 21 July does not only commemorate the Belgian national day, but is above all dedicated to the memory of Queen Astrid, tragically lost in a car accident in 1935.

A statue of the queen was placed in the rotunda of the remarkable monument with its neoclassical colonnades.
