Hierdie agglomerasie het 'n bevolking van meer as een miljoen en sy beboude gebied het lankal na die aangrensende Nederlandssprekende "randgemeentes" van die Vlaamse Gewes uitgebrei om 'n metropolitaanse gebied met 'n oppervlakte van 520 vierkante kilometer en 1,4 miljoen inwoners te vorm. Brussel maak daarnaas ook deel uit van 'n groter Belgiese metropolitaanse gebied (<i>agglomération de Bruxelles</i>) in die driehoek tussen Brussel, Gent en Antwerpen met 'n bevolking van 4,4 miljoen. </p><p>Die stad Brussel behels die historiese stadsentrum met Bo- en Benedestad, die noordelike stadsgebiede Haren, Laken, Neder-Over-Heembeek en die bosgebied <i>Ter Kamerenbos</i>.

In 977 het hertog Karel van Nederlotaringe 'n kapel en 'n burg op 'n eiland in die Senne laat oprig. </p><p>Sedert die 12de eeu is Brussel die woonplek van die Brabantse hertoë en 'n sentrum van die middeleeuse lakennywerheid. Die vesting van Brussel het as beskerming van die ou handelsroete tussen <a href="/wiki/Brugge" title="Brugge">Brugge</a> en <a href="/wiki/Keulen" title="Keulen">Keulen</a> gedien. Die stad is in die 12de eeu aansienlik vergroot en gedurende die 14de eeu is die verskillende stadswyke deur 'n gemeenskaplike stadsmuur verenig. </p><p>In die jaar 1383 is die hoofstad van die Hertogdom Leuven na Brussel verskuif. Alhoewel 'n groot aantal adellikes en amptenare van die hof hulle in die stad gevestig het, is Brussel nog steeds deur burgerlikes – die koopmansgildes – geregeer. Sedert 1421 het ook ambagsmanne lede van die stadsraad geword. Brussel het die hoogtepunt van sy ontwikkeling onder die heerskappy van die Hertoë van Boergondië beleef en het as die hoofstad van die Nederlande gefungeer. Die <a href="/wiki/Groot_Markplein_van_Brussel" title="Groot Markplein van Brussel">Groot Markplein</a> (<i>Grand-Place</i>) met die statige Stadhuis en sy gildehuise het die trotse simbool van die plaaslike bestuur geword. Danksy die hof van die hertoë het Brussel ook tot 'n belangrike sentrum van die <a href="/wiki/Renaissance" title="Renaissance">renaissance</a> in die noordelike deel van Europa ontwikkel. Met sowat 45 000 inwoners teen 1455 was Brussel een van die grootste stede in Europa. </p><p>Tydens die 16de eeu was Brussel die sentrum van die Nederlandse opstand teen die Spaanse heerskappy. Op 10 Maart 1585 het Brussel gekapituleer en is deur Spaanse troepe onder bevel van Alessandro Farnese, hertog van Parma en stadhouer van die Nederlande, ingeneem. Brussel het nou as hoofstad van die Habsburgse Nederlande gefungeer. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Hoofstad_van_België"><span id="Hoofstad_van_Belgi.C3.AB"></span>Hoofstad van België</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&veaction=edit&section=6" title="Wysig afdeling: Hoofstad van België" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>wysig</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section's source code: Hoofstad van België"><span>wysig bron</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/L%C3%AAer:Brussels_-_Rue_des_Bouchers_Beenhouwersstraat_-_20050616.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1d/Brussels_-_Rue_des_Bouchers_Beenhouwersstraat_-_20050616.jpg/220px-Brussels_-_Rue_des_Bouchers_Beenhouwersstraat_-_20050616.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="293" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1d/Brussels_-_Rue_des_Bouchers_Beenhouwersstraat_-_20050616.jpg/330px-Brussels_-_Rue_des_Bouchers_Beenhouwersstraat_-_20050616.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1d/Brussels_-_Rue_des_Bouchers_Beenhouwersstraat_-_20050616.jpg/440px-Brussels_-_Rue_des_Bouchers_Beenhouwersstraat_-_20050616.jpg 2x" data-file-width="960" data-file-height="1280" /></a><figcaption><i>Rue des Bouchers</i> ("Slagterstraat") – 'n mekka vir fynproewers</figcaption></figure> <p>Die stigting van die onafhanklike Koninkryk België in 1831 is ondanks die sterk Nederlandse invloed op Vlaandere en die Franse invloed op Wallonië deur die meeste Belgiërs nie bevraagteken nie – die geskiedkundige ontwikkeling het 'n sterk samehorigheidsgevoel onder sy inwoners gekweek. Tot en met 1792 het Vlaandere en Wallonië deel uitgemaak van die Habsburgse Ryk en het daarna onder Franse bewind gekom. In 1815 jaar het die twee landsdele met die noordelike buurland Nederland tot die nuutgestigte Koninkryk Nederland saamgesmelt, waarby Den Haag en Brussel om die beurt as regeringsetel gedien het. Hierdie reëling het op 'n kompromis berus – met die ekonomiese opswaai in Vlaandere en veral Wallonië vanaf die Napoleontiese tydperk het die suidelike landsdele 'n sterk drang vir selfregering ontwikkel. </p><p>Op 25 Augustus 1830 het die suide se nasionale gevoelens tydens die opvoering van die rewolusionêre opera <i>La Muette de Portici</i> ("Die Stomme van Portici") skielik uitgebars en uitgemond in 'n ope rebellie wat die aanleiding tot België se vryheidsstryd gegee het. </p><p>Brussel het vervolgens as die hoofstad van die nuutgestigte Koninkryk België gefungeer – 'n land met 'n moderne en progressiewe grondwet, gelyke regte vir alle burgers, die reg op vryheid van mening en vergadering en skeiding van kerk en staat. Die Belgiese monarg het oorwegend representatiewe funksies uitgeoefen. Destyds het die stad se bevolking meer as 100 000 mense beloop. In 1835 het hier die eerste spoorweg op die Europese vasteland ontstaan, wat Brussel met die nabye Vlaamse stad Mechelen verbind het. </p><p>Danksy die nuwe rol as die hoofstad van 'n onafhanklike staat en die aansienlike groei van die Belgiese nywerhede het die Brusselse bevolking vinnig gegroei, onder meer as gevolg van immigrasie uit die Franstalige <a href="/wiki/Walloni%C3%AB" class="mw-disambig" title="Wallonië">Wallonië</a> en <a href="/wiki/Frankryk" title="Frankryk">Frankryk</a>.

In 1550 het Maria van Hongarye, 'n heerseres van die huis Habsburg, die administrasie van die Spaanse Nederlande van Mechelen na Brussel verskuif. Koning <a href="/wiki/Leopold_II_van_Belgi%C3%AB" title="Leopold II van België">Leopold II</a>, wat tussen 1865 en 1909 geregeer het, het die neoklassisistiese boustyl van Parys vir sy geboue oorgeneem, onder meer die Triomfboog van die jare 1904–1905. Sy koloniale beleid in <a href="/wiki/Afrika" title="Afrika">Afrika</a> het tot die stigting van die kolonie Belgies-Kongo gelei, en vandag huisves die Belgiese hoofstad nog steeds 'n relatief groot gemeenskap van Kongolese burgers. Met die heropbou en die modernisering van die ekonomie het 'n groot aantal gasarbeiders uit Italië en later ook Arabiese lande (Marokko) hulle in Brussel gevestig. </p><p>Die ontwikkeling van Brussel tot een van die politieke sentrums van die Europese Unie het daarnaas tot die vestiging van duisende Europese amptenare in die stad gelei. Inheemse Brusselaars verwys na hulle – net soos na die diplomate en NAVO-militariste – as <i>immigrés de luxe</i> of "luukse-immigrante". Baie van hulle woon in die voorstede van Brussel waar hulle hul eie skole, kerke en klubs gestig het. </p><p>Vandag is meer as dertig persent van die totale bevolking van die Brusselse Hoofstadgewes immigrante (waaronder ook talle onwettiges), terwyl tien persent as kinders van migrante Belgiese burgerskap verwerf het. Na hulle word dikwels verwys as "Nuwe Belge". </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Taalkundige_situasie">Taalkundige situasie</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&veaction=edit&section=8" title="Wysig afdeling: Taalkundige situasie" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>wysig</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section's source code: Taalkundige situasie"><span>wysig bron</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/L%C3%AAer:European_Commission_HD_(Retouched).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fd/European_Commission_HD_%28Retouched%29.jpg/220px-European_Commission_HD_%28Retouched%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="138" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fd/European_Commission_HD_%28Retouched%29.jpg/330px-European_Commission_HD_%28Retouched%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/fd/European_Commission_HD_%28Retouched%29.jpg/440px-European_Commission_HD_%28Retouched%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="5744" data-file-height="3590" /></a><figcaption>Dagaansig van die Berlaymont-gebou</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/L%C3%AAer:Bxl-evolution-linguistique.gif" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c7/Bxl-evolution-linguistique.gif/220px-Bxl-evolution-linguistique.gif" decoding="async" width="220" height="135" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c7/Bxl-evolution-linguistique.gif/330px-Bxl-evolution-linguistique.gif 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c7/Bxl-evolution-linguistique.gif/440px-Bxl-evolution-linguistique.gif 2x" data-file-width="726" data-file-height="444" /></a><figcaption>Die <a href="/wiki/Verfransing_van_Brussel" title="Verfransing van Brussel">verfransing van Brussel</a> duur steeds voort</figcaption></figure> <p>Die oorspronklike tale van Brussel is die Brabantse dialekte van Nederlands. Eie aan Brussel was <i>Marollien</i> (Frans: "Die taal van die stadswyk Marollen"), 'n Brusselse dialek wat sterk deur die Waalse taal beïnvloed is. Marollien is oorspronklik in die Marollen (Frans: <i>Marolles</i>), 'n stadsbuurt in die historiese binnestad van Brussel, gepraat. Sowel Frans en Nederlands is in die geskiedenis van die stad as amptelike tale gebruik en deur die bolaag van die bevolking gepraat. </p><p>Met die vestiging van geletterdheid onder die bevolking word die dialekte geleidelik deur die standaardtale teruggedring. In die 19de eeuse België het Nederlands 'n swak reputasie gehad teenoor Frans wat destyds as die internasionale kultuurtaal beskou is en toe die amptelike taal van België was. Vandag word die Brusselse dialekte deur uitwissing bedreig, alhoewel daar pogings onderneem word om hulle te bewaar. </p><p>Tans is Brussel as die nasionale hoofstad van België amptelik tweetalig. Dit beteken nie noodwendig dat Brusselaars albei tale vlot kan praat nie of dat Nederlands in elke kroeg of restaurant maklik verstaan word. Net soos in Wallonië en Vlaandere het eentalige netwerke ontstaan met skole, kulturele instellings en ander geriewe waar uitsluitlik Frans of uitsluitlik Nederlands gebruik word. </p><p>Daar is geen amptelike statistieke aangaande die huistaal van die bevolking nie. Volgens 'n 2005-studie van Rudi Janssens, 'n sosiolinguis by die Nederlandstalige <i>Vrije Universiteit van Brussel (VUB)</i>, is sowat 7 persent van die Brusselse bevolking Nederlandse moedertaalsprekers, terwyl 56,8% Franse moedertaalsprekers is. 'n Verdere 8,6 persent is afkomstig van tweetalige gesinne, waar beide Nederlands en Frans as huistale gepraat word (daar word wel opgemerk dat daar in hierdie tweetalige gesinne 'n tendens is om eerder Nederlands te gebruik). 11,3% van die bevolking is afkomstig van 'n tweetalige gesin wat deels Frans is en deel 'n taal anders as Nederlands is, terwyl 16,3% afkomstig is van gesinne waar nóg Nederlands, nóg Frans gebesig word.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/L%C3%AAer:North_Galaxy_Towers-Schaerbeek-001.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/North_Galaxy_Towers-Schaerbeek-001.JPG/220px-North_Galaxy_Towers-Schaerbeek-001.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/North_Galaxy_Towers-Schaerbeek-001.JPG/330px-North_Galaxy_Towers-Schaerbeek-001.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/48/North_Galaxy_Towers-Schaerbeek-001.JPG/440px-North_Galaxy_Towers-Schaerbeek-001.JPG 2x" data-file-width="3648" data-file-height="2736" /></a><figcaption>Die stadshorison van die moderne Brussel: kantoorgeboue in die Quartier Nord</figcaption></figure> <p>Die groei van Brussel lei tot die vestiging van groot getalle Franstaliges in die Vlaamse voorstede van Brussel, waar hulle dikwels al die meerderheid vorm. </p><p>Die feit dat Brussel 'n hoofsaaklik Franssprekende <a href="/wiki/Metropool" title="Metropool">metropool</a> geword het en deur middel van die verfranste voorstede nou begin om 'n veral Franse taalgebied in voormalige Vlaamse dorpe te ontwikkel, wat administratief en territoriaal direk verbind sou kon word met Wallonië, skep 'n probleem vir die twee groot taalgemeenskappe van <a href="/wiki/Belgi%C3%AB" title="België">België</a>. </p><p>Na die <a href="/wiki/Tweede_W%C3%AAreldoorlog" title="Tweede Wêreldoorlog">Tweede Wêreldoorlog</a> was die status van die stad 'n twispunt van die Belgiese politiek. Brussel was sedert die jare 1932 tot 1938 amptelik tweetalig, terwyl die ses Vlaamse <i>randgemeentes</i> (voorstede net buite die Brusselse Hoofstadgewes) Drogenbos, Kraainem, Linkebeek, <a href="/wiki/Sint-Genesius-Rode" title="Sint-Genesius-Rode">Sint-Genesius-Rode</a>, Wemmel en Wezembeek-Oppem fasiliteite moet aanbied vir Franssprekende Brusselaars wat na hierdie voorstede verhuis het. Daar is nog steeds 'n geskil of hierdie instellings soos skole en biblioteke slegs 'n tydelike oplossing gaan wees of permanente status moet kry. Pogings van Franstaliges om hierdie randgemeentes by die agglomerasie van Brussel in te lyf en sodanig die taalgrens deur die geografiese verbinding met Wallonië vir goed af te baken, is deur die Vlaamse bevolking (60 persent van die Belgiese bevolking) gekeer. </p><p>Die status van die Franse taal, alhoewel gepaard met maatskaplike druk, het vanaf die 19de eeu tot so onlangs as 1960 verseker dat baie Vlaminge Nederlands as omgangstaal laat vaar het. Bedags stroom sowat 220 000 Vlaamse pendelaars na Brussel. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Ekonomiese_basis">Ekonomiese basis</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&veaction=edit&section=9" title="Wysig afdeling: Ekonomiese basis" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>wysig</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section's source code: Ekonomiese basis"><span>wysig bron</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Historiese_ontwikkeling">Historiese ontwikkeling</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&veaction=edit&section=10" title="Wysig afdeling: Historiese ontwikkeling" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>wysig</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section's source code: Historiese ontwikkeling"><span>wysig bron</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/L%C3%AAer:Bourse_Bxl_02.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9c/Bourse_Bxl_02.JPG/220px-Bourse_Bxl_02.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="170" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9c/Bourse_Bxl_02.JPG/330px-Bourse_Bxl_02.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9c/Bourse_Bxl_02.JPG/440px-Bourse_Bxl_02.JPG 2x" data-file-width="2224" data-file-height="1714" /></a><figcaption>Die Brusselse Effektebeurs</figcaption></figure> <p>In die Middeleeue is Brussel se ekonomie deur die gildes van die verskillende ambagte oorheers, en naas die meer as veertig lewensgrote bronsstandbeelde op die Kleine Zavel (<i>Place du Petit Sablon</i>) wat hierdie gildes versinnebeeld, is daar nog 'n aantal straatname soos <i>Rue des Bouchers</i> ("Slagterstraat") wat aan die ambagsmanne se oorspronklike kwartiere herinner.

So is 'n aantal buitelandse staatslenings in België uitgereik, veral deur die Weense regering, maar ook deur Swede en Rusland, en meestal was Brusselse banke by hierdie soort transaksies betrokke. Belgiese banke het daarnaas begin om in Franse staatsskuld te belê. Desondanks was Brussel destyds op nasionale vlak net 'n tweederangse handelsplek naas Antwerpen waar die belangrikste Belgiese effektebeurs gesetel was. Hier is hoofsaaklik buitelandse staatsobligasies verhandel waarby Oostenryk en Rusland – naas Denemarke, Swede en Engeland – 'n sentrale rol gespeel het, terwyl die Brusselse effektebeurs hom op die bates van openbare Belgiese instellings toegespits het.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Eers vanaf die 1820's het Brussel se finansiële sektor voordeel getrek uit 'n reeks politieke besluite en ontwikkelinge. So is danksy die inisiatief van koning Willem I van Nederland en enkele Brusselse bankiers in 1822 die <i>Société Générale</i> gestig wat in die suide van die destydse Koninkryk van Nederland die funksies van reserwe- en leningsbank asook staatskas sou vervul. Met 'n kapitaal van 30 miljoen gulden kon dit reeds in die liga van groot Europese banke speel. 'n Beslissende gebeurtenis was België se onafhanklikwording in 1830 waardeur alle administratiewe instellings in die hoofstad Brussel saamgetrek is, terwyl Antwerpen sy leidende rol gaandeweg verloor het. </p><p>'n Tweede belangrike faktor was die vestiging van invloedryke privaat bankiers uit ander Europese lande, waaronder Joodse bankiers uit Duitsland. Die mees bekende van hierdie bankiers was Jonathan-Raphaël Bischoffsheim, 'n boorling van <a href="/wiki/Frankfurt_am_Main" title="Frankfurt am Main">Frankfurt am Main</a>, wie se naam veral met die geskiedenis van die <i>Banque de Belgique</i> verbind word wat in 1835 as belangrikste mededinger van die <i>Société Générale</i> gestig is, en, in die tweede helfte van die 19de eeu, met die <i>Banque de Paris et des Pays-Bas</i>. Toe Bischoffsheim hom in die laat 1830's in Brussel gevestig het, het hy en sy broer Louis reeds nou bande met finansiële kringe in die buiteland gehandhaaf wat hulle steeds verder uitgebou het. Kontakte het onder meer die magtige bankier-gesin Rothschild ingesluit. Steeds meer Duitse bankiers is na die Belgiese hoofstad gelok, waaronder die Protestantse bankier Friedrich Brugmann uit <a href="/wiki/Dortmund" title="Dortmund">Dortmund</a>, stigter van die bankhuis <i>Engler, Brugmann et Cie</i>. </p><p>Die <i>Société Générale</i> het gaandeweg tot 'n Brusselse instelling gegroei. Terwyl in die periode tussen 1825 en 1830 meer as die helfte van alle aandeelhouers in Brussel gesetel was, het hul aandeel in 1837 reeds meer as 90 persent beloop. Brussel se ontwikkeling tot die finansiële sentrum van België is verder bevorder deur die belangrike rol wat die <i>Société Générale</i> en die <i>Banque de Belgique</i> by die stigting van België se eerste groot nywerheidsmaatskappye gespeel het. Hul aandele is byna uitsluitlik in die hoofstad verhandel, terwyl Antwerpen se effektebeurs op nasionale vlak steeds meer aan belangrikheid verloor het. </p><p>Brussel se finansiële sektor het hom egter oorwegend tot die nasionale ekonomie beperk, en tussen 1830 en 1850 is Belgiese kapitaal merendeels in inheemse aandelemaatskappye belê. Buitelandse beleggers was egter aktief betrokke by België se ekonomiese ontwikkeling. In die eerste dekades ná België se onafhanklikwording het België se buitelandse skuldlas sterk gegroei. Die staat se kredietwaardigheid was aanvanklik nog relatief swak, terwyl kredietbehoeftes onder meer deur die uitbou van die Belgiese spoorwegnetwerk verhoog is. Anders as in Engeland, waar spoorweë hoofsaaklik danksy privaat inisiatiewe ontstaan het, het die Belgiese regering besluit om spoorweë as 'n nasionale projek te beskou en deur staatsfondse te bou en te onderhou. Die meeste Belgiese staatslenings is op finansiële handelsplekke in die buiteland aangegaan, hoofsaaklik in Parys en Londen. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Kuns_en_kultuur">Kuns en kultuur</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&veaction=edit&section=13" title="Wysig afdeling: Kuns en kultuur" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>wysig</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&action=edit&section=13" title="Edit section's source code: Kuns en kultuur"><span>wysig bron</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/L%C3%AAer:Zepper-Br%C3%BCssel-Belgien-K%C3%B6niglicherPalast.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/51/Zepper-Br%C3%BCssel-Belgien-K%C3%B6niglicherPalast.jpg/220px-Zepper-Br%C3%BCssel-Belgien-K%C3%B6niglicherPalast.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/51/Zepper-Br%C3%BCssel-Belgien-K%C3%B6niglicherPalast.jpg/330px-Zepper-Br%C3%BCssel-Belgien-K%C3%B6niglicherPalast.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/51/Zepper-Br%C3%BCssel-Belgien-K%C3%B6niglicherPalast.jpg/440px-Zepper-Br%C3%BCssel-Belgien-K%C3%B6niglicherPalast.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3464" data-file-height="2309" /></a><figcaption>Die koninklike paleis</figcaption></figure> <p>Brussel se ryk verskeidenheid van kulturele instellings sluit talle Frans- en Nederlandstalige teaters, waaronder die eersterangse operateater Théatre de la Monnaie ("Muntskouburg"), en museums in. </p><p>Net soos Parys staan Brussel as een van die Europese hoofstede van die <a href="/wiki/Strokiesverhaal" title="Strokiesverhaal">strokiesverhaal</a> bekend.

Sy toring met 'n hoogte van 96 meter, wat deur Jan van Ruusbroec ontwerp is, is met standbeelde van die aartsengel Michiel, die beskermheilige van Brussel, en die duiwel bekroon. Die toring word as een van die mooiste voorbeelde van die wêreldlike Gotiese boukuns beskou. </p><p>Die oosvleuel met die Leeuetrap dateer uit die vroeë 15de eeu en is sodoende die oudste deel van die huidige stadhuis. Die wesvleuel is tussen 1445 en 1450 bygevoeg, maar die destydse boumeesters het min aandag aan die skepping van 'n harmoniese en simmetriese struktuur geskenk. Die gebou is tydens die Franse bombardering van 1695 ernstig beskadig en vervolgens heropgebou. Die State van Brabant het die ou lakenhal aan die agterkant van die stadhuis tussen 1706 en 1711 deur 'n nuwe gebou laat vervang, en die hof wat hier ontstaan het, is met 'n allegoriese fontein versier wat die Maasrivier as bronfiguur uitgebeeld het. </p><p>Die kraagstene en kapitele van die wesvleuel is met beeldhouwerk versier wat 'n slapende Moor in sy harem en monnike tydens 'n drinkparty uitbeeld – 'n verwysing na twee historiese huise, <i>De Moor</i> en <i>Papenkeldere</i>, wat afgebreek is om plek te maak vir die nuwe vleuel. Ook die fasade besit beeldhouwerke en allegoriese figure van onder meer die beeldhouer Charles-August Fraikin (1817–1839), wat ook die monument ter ere van die grawe Egmont en Hoorn op die Petit Sablon geskep het. Ander figure sluit Sint Michiel, Sint Joris, Sint Sebastiaan en Sint Christoforus in die boogveld van die portaal in. </p><p>Ander bekende Belgiese beeldhouers verwys met die kunswerke wat hulle vir die stadhuis geskep het na bekende persoonlikhede uit die Brusselse kunslewe en geskiedenis. Georges Minne het byvoorbeeld 'n steenmonument ter ere van die argitek Jacques Francquart (1582–1651) geskep. Altesaam 137 portieke is met beeldhouwerke versier wat onder meer die skilder Bernard van Orley (1488–1542), die Busselse stadskilder Rogier van der Weyden ('n boorling van <a href="/wiki/Doornik" title="Doornik">Doornik</a>, omstreeks 1400–1464) en Maria van Hongarye uitbeeld. </p><p>Die room van die stadhuis se kosbare kunsskatte sluit wandtapyte in wat tussen die 16de en 19de eeu ontstaan het en tonele uit die lewe van <a href="/wiki/Clovis_I" title="Clovis I">Clovis I</a> en die Brusselse gildes uitbeeld. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Justisiepaleis">Justisiepaleis</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&veaction=edit&section=16" title="Wysig afdeling: Justisiepaleis" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>wysig</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section's source code: Justisiepaleis"><span>wysig bron</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/L%C3%AAer:Palais_de_Justice_from_Hilton.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/57/Palais_de_Justice_from_Hilton.jpg/220px-Palais_de_Justice_from_Hilton.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/57/Palais_de_Justice_from_Hilton.jpg/330px-Palais_de_Justice_from_Hilton.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/57/Palais_de_Justice_from_Hilton.jpg/440px-Palais_de_Justice_from_Hilton.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3456" data-file-height="2304" /></a><figcaption>Die Justisiepaleis</figcaption></figure> <p>Die reusagtige Justisiepaleis (<i>Palais de Justice</i>) toring met sy goudversierde koepel met 'n hoogte van 142 meter oor die Bostad van Brussel.

Die boukoste het uiteindelik 45 miljoen Belgiese frank beloop. Die ontwerp van die argitek <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Poelaert" title="Joseph Poelaert">Joseph Poelaert</a> (wat nog voor die voltooiing van sy meesterwerk in 1879 oorlede is) berus oorwegend op antieke Grieks-Romeinse stylelemente.

Die heuwel, wat oorspronklik as Koudenberg bekend gestaan het, is tussen die Koningsplein en die stadsentrum met die Groot Markplein geleë. </p><p>Die historiese buurt is oorspronklik Sint-Rochuswyk of – tot in die 15de eeu – ook "Jodewyk" genoem. Kort ná die eeuwisseling in 1900 is die afgegradeerde middeleeuse binnestadgebied as deel van 'n stadsvernuwingsprojek heeltemal gesloop en het daarna agt jaar lank onbewoon gebly. Eers met die oog op die wêreldtenstoonstelling, wat in 1910 in die Belgiese hoofstad gehou sou word, het koning Léopold II in 1908 aan die Paryse argitek Vacherot die opdrag gegee om die buurt te herontwikkel. </p><p>Vacherot se ontwerp het voorsiening gemaak vir 'n stadspark en 'n monumentale trapgang met fonteine, klein watervalle en beeldhouwerke. Die nuwe Kunsberg is in 1910 een jaar ná die afsterwe van Léopold II deur sy opvolger, koning Albert I, plegtig ingewy. </p><p>Ná die Tweede Wêreldoorlog het die nuwe park die slagoffer van nóg 'n stadsvernuwingsprojek geword. Die park moes met sy plein en sy omgewing plek maak vir ondergrondse parkeerruimtes en massiewe moderne geboue soos die Koninklike Biblioteek van België en die Kongrespaleis wat almal in 'n postmoderne styl ontwerp is. Die nuwe Square Meeting Centre is in September 2009 geopen. </p><p>Die Kunsberg bied een van die beste uitsigte oor die Belgiese metropool wat op 'n sonnige dag tot by die Koekelberg-basiliek en die <a href="/wiki/Atomium" title="Atomium">Atomium</a> kan strek.

Dit is tans die finansiële sentrum van Brussel en huisves daarnaas ook die meeste instellings van die Europese Unie in die Brusselse Hoofstedelike Gewes, waaronder die gebou van die Europese Parlement (Leopoldsplein of Espace Léopold). Die huidige treinstasie <i>Gare de Bruxelles-Luxembourg</i> (vroeër <i>Gare du Quartier Léopold</i>) is digby die Europese parlementsgebou geleë. </p><p>Brussel se tweede grootste besigheidsdistrik, die Noorderwijk, Quartier Nord of Espace Nord, is in 'n vallei in die noorde van die middestad geleë en word deur 'n groot konsentrasie wolkekrabbers gekenmerk – alhoewel hulle vanweë die plaaslike topografie nie die Brusselse stadshorison oorheers nie.

300 hektaar grond dek. Die woud, wat nou nog 'n derde van sy oorspronklike oppervlakte van die jaar 1830 beslaan, word onder die mooiste bosgebiede van die land gereken. Die reusagtige bome word soms met die pilare van 'n katedraal vergelyk.</li> <li>Die <a href="/wiki/Groot_Markplein_van_Brussel" title="Groot Markplein van Brussel">Groot Markplein van Brussel</a> (<i>Grand-Place</i>) behoort tot die mooiste markpleine ter wêreld. Dit is reeds in die 13de eeu die middelpunt van die Brusselse handel en 48 gildes het destyds hulle hoofkwartier in die stad gehad. Die oorspronklike plein is in 1695 onder Franse geskut verniel, net die stadhuis is gespaar. Met die heropbou ontstaan 'n harmoniese groep van geboue in die Vlaamse barok-styl met sy kenmerkende goue en ryk versierde voorgewels.</li> <li>Die Broodhuis (<i>Maison du Roi</i>) dateer uit die jare 1515 tot 1525 (heropgerig in die tydperk tussen 1860 en 1885) en dien vandag as 'n stedelike museum. Historiese dokumente oor die geskiedenis van die stad Brussel, kantwerk, tapyte, <a href="/wiki/Porselein" title="Porselein">porselein</a> en 'n groot versameling kostuums en uniforms van Manneken Pis kan hier bewonder word.</li> <li>Die Gotiese katedraal St-Michel (vroeër Ste-Gudule) is tussen die 13de en 15de eeu opgerig en aan die aartsengel Michiel, die beskermheer van Brussel, en aan die heilige Gudula gewy. Sy glasvensters dateer uit die 16de eeu. Sedert 1962 is dit die setel van die aartsbiskop van Mechelen-Brussel.</li> <li>Die fontein met die bekende <a href="/wiki/Manneken_Pis" title="Manneken Pis">Manneken Pis</a> staan sowat honderd meter agter die stadhuis in die Stoofstraat (Frans: <i>Rue de l'Étuve</i>) en simboliseer die eiesinnige karakter van die Brusselaars. Die bronsfiguur is in 1619 deur Jérôme Duquesnoy gegiet.</li> <li>Die elegante Koningsplein (<i>Place Royale</i>) is tussen 1774 en 1780 in die styl van Louis XVI (Lodewyk XVI) opgerig.</li> <li>Die Museum vir Ou Kuns (<i>Musée d'Art ancien</i>) toon skilderye van onder meer Brueghel en Rubens.</li> <li>Die <i>Parc du Cinquantenaire</i> lê sowat 2 500 meter oos van die stadsentrum en beslaan 'n oppervlak van 38 hektaar. Die park word in 1880 ter viering van België se vyftigste verjaardag opgerig en huisves onder meer een van die grootste Europese museumkomplekse. Die Koninklike Museum vir Kuns en Geskiedenis in die <i>Palais du Cinquantenaire</i> (Vijftigjarige Jubileumspaleis) toon kunswerke en antikwiteite; hier in die oostelike deel van Brussel is ook die meeste administratiewe geboue van die <a href="/wiki/Europese_Unie" title="Europese Unie">Europese Unie</a> te vinde.</li> <li>Die Brusselse Atomium in die voorstad Laken (Laeken), simbool van die wêreldtentoonstelling van 1958, vorm met sy nege bolle 'n 165-biljoen-keer vergroting van 'n <a href="/wiki/Yster" title="Yster">ystermolekuul</a>. Die gebou van 102 meter hoogte met 'n gewig van 2 400 ton is deur die argitek André Waterkeyn aan die wetenskaplike vooruitgang gewy. Die Atomium het naastenby vyftig jaar na sy opening uitgebreide herstelwerk en opknapping ondergaan. Die aluminium van die ystermolekuul en die struktuur is deur vlekvrye staal vervang. Teen die einde van die jaar 2005 is die Atomium heropen.</li> <li>Die Sint Hubertus-galerye (<i>Galeries Saint-Hubert</i>) is die eerste oordekte winkellaan in Europa en is tussen 1846 en 1847 opgerig.</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Vervoer">Vervoer</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&veaction=edit&section=21" title="Wysig afdeling: Vervoer" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>wysig</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section's source code: Vervoer"><span>wysig bron</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Brussel beskik oor 'n aantal groot spoorwegstasies (<a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel-Noord&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Brussel-Noord (bladsy bestaan nie)">Brussel-Noord</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel-Sentraal&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Brussel-Sentraal (bladsy bestaan nie)">Brussel-Sentraal</a> en <a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel-Suid&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Brussel-Suid (bladsy bestaan nie)">Brussel-Suid</a>), wat deur 'n tonnellyn met mekaar verbind word.

Die Groot Markplein is die tuiste van die <i>chocolatiers</i> en ander winkels wat die gesogte soet kosse verkoop. Die <b>Îlot sacré</b> noordoos van die Groot Markplein is 'n ou buurt met talle restourante. Tipiese spesialiteite is mossels en tjips (<i>moules-frites</i>), Brusselse sigorei (<i>chicorée</i>) en Brusselse spruitjies (<i>chou de Bruxelles</i>). </p><p>Gewilde Brusselse lekkernye is die bekende wafels (<i>gaufres</i>), wat ook as 'n warm nagereg met of sonder <a href="/wiki/Goue_stroop" title="Goue stroop">stroop</a> geniet word, en <a href="/wiki/Sjokolade" title="Sjokolade">sjokolade</a>.

Sover bekend, is die Belgiese tjip reeds in die jaar 1781 in die stad Luik (Liège) as 'n tipiese wintermaaltyd geniet – die klein stafies het toe die visse vervang wat weens die dik yslae op die mere en riviere nie meer gehengel kon word nie. In 'n tyd, wanneer aartappels in Frankryk nog feitlik onbekend was, is hulle in die noordelike buurland danksy die Belgiese vernuf ook buite die kulinêre sfeer gebruik: tydens die Brabantse Rewolusie van 1789 is die Oostenrykse troepe met aartappels bestook. </p><p>Die huidige vreedsame gebruik van hierdie Belgiese <a href="/wiki/Stapelvoedsel" title="Stapelvoedsel">stapelvoedsel</a> vereis dat hulle eers tien minute lank teen 120°C in diepolie geblansjeer word, 'n tyd lank mag afkoel en daarna nog eens 'n kort rukkie teen 180°C gebak word, wat hulle besonder bros maak en aan hulle die tipiese goue kleur verleen. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Bierkultuur">Bierkultuur</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&veaction=edit&section=24" title="Wysig afdeling: Bierkultuur" class="mw-editsection-visualeditor"><span>wysig</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-divider"> | </span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Brussel&action=edit&section=24" title="Edit section's source code: Bierkultuur"><span>wysig bron</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Bier, Brussel en België is vir kenners onlosmaaklik met mekaar verbonde. Die belanrike rol, wat bierbrouerye in die stadsgeskiedenis gespeel het, word weerspieël in die prominente plek wat die Brouergildehuis op die Groot Markplein inneem. Bierbroutradisies strek terug tot in die Middeleeue toe brouerye in abdye gevestig is. Unesco het aan Belgiese bierbroutradisies in 2016 die status van immateriële kultuurerfenis van die mensheid toegeken.<sup id="cite_ref-20" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Vandag is daar sowat 200 brouerye in België, en bierliefhebbers kan uit 2 500 verskillende biersoorte kies. </p><p>Van die soorte, wat inheems aan Brussel is, is <i>Kriek-Lambic</i> en <i>Gueuze</i>. As basis vir die suur <i>Gueuze</i>-bier dien <i>Lambic</i> (Nederlands: <i>Lambiek</i>), 'n bier wat van koring, gemoute gars, hop en water gebrou word en in ou houtvate sonder gis fermenteer. Gis word op natuurlike manier uit die lug van die omgewing "ingevang" deur die mengsel in oop houers te stoor – 'n metode waarna as spontane vergissing verwys word. Spontane vergissing was tradisioneel die standaardmetode vir brouereye voordat in die moderne tyd mikrobiologiese prosesse deur wetenskaplikes sistematies ondersoek is. Lambic is tans een van min biersoorte waarop die historiese voorwetenskaplike metode nog toegepas word. Dikwels word verskillende soorte <i>Lambic</i> gemeng om die skuimende <i>Gueuze</i> te verkry – 'n bier met 'n sterk geur van appelwyn. Belgiërs geniet hulle <i>Lambic</i> ook met kerssap ("kriek") en ander vrugtesappe. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Susterstede">Susterstede</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span
