Aperçu

Founded in 1906 and placed under the patronage of King Albert I in 1913, the Brussels Royal Yacht Club has always enjoyed facilities at the precise location it occupies today, downstream of Van Praet bridge, at the entrance to the Brussels canal, close to the Royal Palace of Laeken. Originally consisting of a floating hangar and a pavilion used as a clubhouse, it expanded as its membership grew, until a fire destroyed the premises in 1934. A new, larger and more modern clubhouse was built and inaugurated in 1936. This prestigious modernist building still forms the main body of today’s clubhouse. The floor comes from the yacht "Erin", which belonged to Sir Thomas Lipton. The boxes and wall panelling come from the "Princesse Marie-José" and "Prince Léopold" trunks. BRYC is the leading yacht club and largest marina in French-speaking Belgium. It is very active and organises numerous events, both on land and at sea!
