THE PALACE OF THE ACADEMIES

The Palace of the Academies, a building in the neo-classical style located to the east of the Place des Palais in Brussels, accommodates the Royal Academies of Medicine of Belgium (ARMB and KAGB) and the Royal Academy for Science and the Arts of Belgium (ARB and KVAB), and the Royal Academy of French Language and Literature (ARLLFB).

This Palace built in the 19th Century for Prince William of Orange is an architectural treasure, which houses works of art and books which are centuries old.

The Palace of the Academies is in a central position in Brussels neighbouring the Royal Palace, the Belgian political institutions and the European institutions. It is easily accessible by car and public transport.
