La Fleur en Papier Doré - Het Goudblommeke in Papier, Heritage café in Pentagon district, Brussels, Belgium.

Located at 53-55 Rue des Alexiens, this café occupies a seventeenth-century house with an interior displaying 418 artworks, photographs, and historical objects.

The building withstood the 1695 bombardment of Brussels and reopened as La Fleur en Papier Doré in October 1944 under founder Geert Van Bruaene.

The café emerged as a central gathering space for surrealist painters, with regular visits from René Magritte and members of the CoBrA avant-garde movement.

The establishment maintains its original protected interior from 1997, serving traditional Belgian café fare in multiple rooms across two floors.

This protected monument contains 418 precisely counted artworks and objects, with strict regulations preventing any modifications to its historical décor.
