À l’angle du chemin des Silex et de la Chaussée de la Hulpe (à l’entrée des étangs de Boitsfort), Brussels
Le Coin du balai is a neighborhood nestled on the outskirts of Watermael-Boitsfort, at the southeastern tip of Brussels. This true peninsula tucked away at the edge of the Sonian Forest is mainly accessible via the Chaussée de la Hulpe. It is an old rural core, whose beginnings date back to the 16th century, which is characterized by its small terraced houses facing the street, built by working-class families between 1880 and 1920. Beyond its village charm, which pioneering urban struggles have helped to preserve, the Coin du balai retains an unsuspected heritage, between city and forest, which this visit invites you to discover.
