Explore Berlaymont

Located in Brussels, Berlaymont serves as the administrative headquarters of the European Commission. Its construction began in 1967, commissioned to house the EU's executive arm, which plays a key role in European governance.

This four-winged building underwent a billion-euro renovation from 1991 to 2004, primarily to remove hazardous asbestos. While not aesthetically pleasing, it’s a structural marvel that embodies Brussels' international significance.
