  • Review this attraction
  • The name Sablon refers to the sandy marshland that occupied this site until it was reclaimed in the 17th century. The Place du Grand Sablon is a centre for antiques and is home to two of Brussels’ leading chocolate makers: Wittamer and Pierre Marcolini. The Place du Petit Sablon is dominated by its park, which is adorned with 48 statues of the medieval guilds of Brussels. Separating the two is the Église Notre-Dame du Sablon.

Practical Information
Rue de la Regence 3B Open 9am–5pm Mon–Fri, 9:30am– 5pm Sat, 10am–5pm Sun Free
