Brussels and the European Union, European Union administrative district in Brussels, Belgium
The European Quarter contains three main institutions: the European Parliament, Council of Ministers, and European Commission within a concentrated area of modern buildings.
The 1957 Treaty of Rome established Brussels as a key location for European institutions, leading to its transformation from a residential area to administrative headquarters.
Place du Luxembourg attracts international civil servants, diplomats, and local residents who gather for social activities, especially during Thursday evening sessions.
The European district connects to public transportation through Maelbeek and Schuman metro stations on lines 1 and 5, with multiple bus routes serving the area.
The Berlaymont building, shaped like an X and rising fourteen stories, functions as the central headquarters of the European Commission since 1967.
