Charleroi Courthouse, Courthouse in Charleroi, Belgium
The Charleroi Palace of Justice stands with concrete framework and glass facades, featuring a distinctive canopy at its main entrance point.
The judicial building, designed by architect Jacques Depelsenaire, was constructed between 1959 and 1963 on former military training grounds.
The courthouse integrates multiple art pieces, including 'Justice Pursuing Evil' by André Hupet and several monumental sculptures in the inner courtyard.
The building houses various judicial services, including the Court of First Instance of Hainaut, with security systems comparable to airport screening.
The structure follows a U-shaped design influenced by post-war modernism, requiring approval from the architect's estate for any modifications.
