Amicale Solvay, Protected heritage building in Couillet, Belgium
The Amicale Solvay features a large semi-circular entrance that leads to a monumental stairwell illuminated by a circular glass roof above.
Built between 1937 and 1939 by architect Eleazar Cozac, this facility originally contained a swimming pool, performance hall, and restaurant for Solvay company workers.
The performance hall stands as a precise replica of the Casino building in Jemeppe-sur-Sambre, reflecting the architectural preferences of the late 1930s.
Located at Rue de Châtelet 442 in Couillet, the structure remains under protection status since July 2000, requiring regular maintenance inspections every five years.
The building incorporates metal-framed windows across its facades, creating bright interior spaces through natural light penetration from multiple directions.
