Embassy of Belgium, London, Belgian diplomatic mission in Westminster, United Kingdom.
The Embassy of Belgium occupies number 17 Grosvenor Crescent, a Grade II listed structure built in the 1850s with distinctive Victorian architectural features throughout its exterior and interior spaces. The building serves as the diplomatic mission and provides consular services to Belgian citizens and visitors seeking assistance.
The embassy moved to Grosvenor Crescent in 2006 after operating from a different London location for several decades prior. This relocation represented a significant shift in the physical presence of Belgian diplomatic operations in the British capital.
The embassy hosts rotating exhibitions of Belgian art and maintains active cultural programs that bring Belgian and British communities together. Visitors can attend these events to experience contemporary Belgian creative work and artistic traditions.
Consular services are available on weekdays during morning and afternoon hours, separated by a lunch break. Visitors should contact ahead to confirm opening hours and what documents they need to bring for their specific request.
The building previously served as a military hospital for officers during a past conflict and was supported by royal patronage. This lesser-known chapter in its history adds depth to the site beyond its current diplomatic role.
