Place Flagey, Cultural square in Ixelles, Belgium

Place Flagey forms a trapezoidal square where multiple streets meet, featuring the notable Art Deco Flagey Building on its southwestern corner.

The space emerged from a drained Ixelles pond in 1860 and received its current name in 1937 to honor Eugène Flagey, a former mayor of Ixelles.

The former radio broadcasting building now functions as a cultural center, presenting regular concerts, film screenings, and performances throughout the year.

The square contains an underground parking facility, multiple public transportation connections, and numerous cafes serving visitors and residents.

Belgium's first self-service supermarket opened at Place Flagey in December 1957, marking a significant change in local shopping habits.
