Place du Luxembourg, square in Brussels, Belgium
Place du Luxembourg is a square featuring lawn and garden areas in the Ixelles-Elsene district. It includes planted sections and is bordered by fences that structure the space and define separate zones within it.
A Luxembourg chapel, which gave the square its name, was once a landmark structure in the neighborhood. After its demolition, the site developed into a public space with green areas for residents.
The square takes its name from a Luxembourg chapel that once stood here and shaped the neighborhood's character. Today it serves as a gathering place where residents spend time together and children play on the grass.
The square is accessible and offers different areas for walking and sitting with both open and planted zones. The fences help mark boundaries and make it easy to navigate the layout.
The square includes community gardens where residents can grow their own plants. These planted sections give the space a special horticultural purpose beyond its role as a meeting area.
