Halls of Saint Gaugericus, Protected heritage market hall in Pentagon district, Brussels, Belgium.

The Halls of Saint-Géry features Renaissance Revival architecture with four rows of double stalls and metal framework throughout its interior space.

Built in 1881 by architect Adolphe Vanderheggen, the structure replaced a Gothic church that contained Saint Gudula relics until the 11th century.

The halls function as an information center and exhibition space, offering insights into Brussels' architecture, heritage, and urban development through various displays.

Visitors can access the exhibition center daily from 10:00 to 23:00, with free guided tours available to explore Place Saint-Géry and its surroundings.

The building contains the last visible remnant of the Senne River, integrating this water feature into its architectural heritage display.
