South Palace, Market hall and public building on Boulevard Lemonnier, Belgium.
The Palais du Midi extends 175 meters along Boulevard Lemonnier with a facade combining blue and white stones, large display windows, and prominent corner pavilions.
Architect Wynand Janssens designed this structure between 1875 and 1880, following the vaulting of the Senne River to enhance commercial activity in central Brussels.
The building houses a high school, sports complex, and thirty shops, functioning as a central gathering place for local residents and regional visitors.
The structure connects directly to the Lemonnier premetro station, providing easy access to public transportation for students, shoppers, and community members.
The Passage du Travail separates two wings of the building, featuring a row of pilasters and display windows that maintain the original commercial character.
