A (hidden) Art Nouveau gem.
In 1841 the Ursuline nuns started a school for young girls (from rich families) in Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-Waver. Pretty soon after its establishment, the Ursuline Institute gained international fame. Around the turn of the century almost a quarter of the students in this renowned boarding school were of foreign origin.
In 1900 the institute built a beautiful winter garden in Art Nouveau. The architect is (still) unknown. The winter garden served as a reception room for the visitors of the hundreds of girls living in the boarding school. https://visit.mechelen.be/en/wintertuin

Art Nouveau (or Jugendstil) is an art movement that was popular in various places in Europe between 1890 and 1914, mainly as a reaction to form-blurring impressionism. The movement experienced a short but intense flowering period, which mainly expanded during the Belle Epoque. #Architecture #LocalSecrets #Trovember #History

5/5 Excellent

"The Hoxton is next to the Botanic Gardens, with a 20 minute walk into central Brussels and the tourist areas. Just scored down slightly for the lack of storage space for a stay of a few nights, but the roomy rooms are roomy! If the weather is good, make sure you book the roof terrace bar a few days in advance."
