Art Deco: a plunge into Brussels of a past era!
Art Deco is much more than a simple architectural style; it reflects an era of profound technological, social and cultural change. Let’s take our bikes back in time and explore this fascinating period! In the 1920s and 1930s, Brussels was transformed by the leisure boom, a number of technical innovations and an ambition of national greatness. This tour immerses you in an era when electricity, radio and the automobile changed daily life, sports and culture became more widespread, and architecture reflected an ideal of modernity and prestige. Once in Brussels takes you on a tour of the Flagey Building, the former Citroën garages, the Heyzel complex and the Villa Empain. They all have one thing in common: in their own way, they were part of a change of era in Brussels. In collaboration with Once in Brussels. Participants must bring their own bikes.
