Residence Palace, Art Deco building complex in European Quarter, Brussels, Belgium
The Residence Palace features geometric patterns, stepped forms, and decorative elements characteristic of 1920s architecture across its extensive eight-story structure.
Built in 1927 under developer Lucien Kaisin's direction, the complex represented Europe's largest luxury apartment development following the First World War.
The building transformed from an elite residential complex into a center for European institutions, reflecting Brussels' evolution as the administrative capital.
Located near Schuman metro station, the Residence Palace maintains sections open for guided tours focusing on architectural and historical elements.
The complex contained 160 apartments with advanced amenities for its time, including a theater, swimming pool, Turkish baths, and tennis courts.
