Where its name comes from

Kind of name: Commemorative name
Theme: Local notables
Named in: 1883

Albert de Latour (1812-1882) fut conseiller communal à Schaerbeek. Mais l'hommage porte sûrement davantage sur la moitié de sa fortune qu'il légua aux administrations communales afin de subvenir à ses anciens employés de l'usine Vandenbrande. (remark in French, as published)
