Every year, during one weekend, the Heritage Days give you the opportunity to rediscover the city and appreciate it from a new perspective. They also offer you the chance to explore sites that are usually not easily accessible to the public.
In 2026, the Heritage Days in the Brussels Capital Region are to take place on 19 and 20 September.
This edition, we are celebrating « our landscape, our legacy » as part of the Urban’s annual theme, which this year focuses on ‘urban landscapes’. Coordinated by Urban, this event invites participants to explore Brussels through its landscapes: built, natural, social, everyday landscapes, as well as its icons and panoramic views.
