A thousand years of city in one minute

From the castrum on Saint-Géry, an island in the Senne, in 979 to the capital of Europe. Every building in the Region appears in its own time: gabled houses in the medieval core, city walls, the bombardment of 1695, the covered Senne, the North–South Junction, the Atomium.

The interactive map comes from the same reconstruction: pick a year, look up your address, or play the story.
