Delune House, Art Nouveau château in Solbosch, Belgium

The white stone façade of Château Solbosch displays intricate decorative elements and multiple projections that define its architectural character at Franklin Roosevelt Avenue 86.

Commissioned by art patron Amélie De Grave, the château received its construction permit in June 1904 and remained standing through the 1910 World Exposition fire.

The building transformed into a café named Le Château during the 1910 World Fair, hosting jazz performances including American minstrel group concerts.

The château stands at coordinates 50.809 latitude and 4.38451 longitude, with its main entrance formerly positioned on Waaglaan street.

The sgraffito work on the façade features the letter 'A', presumably referencing the original owner Amélie, who later donated numerous paintings to Elsene museum.
