Start from the last floor to discover the original Manneken-Pis. This museum has more than 7.000 pieces to discover the history of Brussels. As Brussels resident, I loved it. It’s nice to see paintings of the old Brussels. For tourists, I recommend to visit this museum only if you have spare time. The visit takes around 1h30/2h. The entrance is 10 euros for adults and 4 euros for students and kids. Brussels has an incredible story but I don’t think this exposition helps the discovery in an easy and user friendly way. A lot to improve in the journey of the visit to the museum. I recommend to start from the last floor where you learn about the history of the city. Then, go down to ground floor where there are the less interesting pottery and the statues from the old city.

Three level museum with lots of cool art, architecture and history. I really like the statues and things from olden Belgian times. It’s semi hidden in the Grand Place but you can find it if you look closely. Would recommended you come check it out!

If you want to know a ton about the history of Brussels and it's architecture in just about an hour, plus see the actual Mannekin Pis statue, visit this museum! Easy to walk through and see art, pottery, furniture and maps that describe the various eras of the city and who rules when and how. It's really cool it's using the legit original building as well.

This museum is unbelievably cool, including the building itself. It’s free with the Brussels Card - something I cannot recommend enough if you’re visiting the city for a couple days, as you can also add on an all-inclusive transit option for fairly cheap. It really gave me a greater appreciation for the city after learning more of its fascinating history.

Great museum to learn about the history of Brussels and the town square! The building is really nice and feels vintage wine it is! The collections are nice and the displayed statues from the fifteenth century are really mesmerizing! They also have the original mannikan-pis statue. The visit is definitely worth it

The museum focuses on the history of the city and all yhe important incidents throughout the years, especially the ones that are not talked about a lot. You can expect to spend about an hour or two, depending on how much you intend to read in detail about all the information.

(Translated by Google) Museum of the city of Brussels located on the main square. The building and the works are beautiful and the route is very interesting. The visit allows you to learn things about the cities. The audio guide available free of charge from a QR code on your smartphone makes the visit more dynamic. Good compliance with sanitary rules.

(Translated by Google) The Bread House, or King’s House, was built in 1536. In the XIII century in its place was a bakery warehouse, which gave the name to the current house. In the XVI century the dukes of Brabant lived here and the building was called the royal. The building was reconstructed several times, the house got its current neo-Gothic appearance in 1873 according to drawings of the 16th century. (Original) Хлебный дом, или Дом короля, был построен в 1536 году. В XIII веке на его месте располагался пекарский склад, что и дало название нынешнему дому. В XVI веке здесь жили герцоги брабантские и здание стали именовать королевским. Здание неоднократно реконструировали, свой нынешний неоготический облик дом получил в 1873 году по чертежам XVI века.

Can't fault the museum. This was the last thing we visited while in Brussels while using the Brussels City Card. The architecture of the building alone is amazing, but the history of the building, Grand Place and the city in general is so rich. The museum provided us with an insight into the history of Brussels, about attacks on the city, famous artwork and sculptures and if course, the original Mannequin Pis is encased here. It was a great experience, shame we were so rushed with our own time and couldn't take everything in. Unfortunately the view of the building was partially blocked by a pop up stage :(

Located at Grand place, one of the beautiful monuments and busiest places of the city.

Very beautiful, outstandingly European, and one of the most clicked places of Belgium. Highly recommended to visit during mid - August, (the assumption of Mary - 15 August) as the empty square in the decorated with flowers and some stunning light shows are organised in the evening.

Another beautiful building in the famous Grand place. This museum provides a great insight about Brussels history, famous artworks and sculptures including original Manneken Piss which is housed here. Must visit if you have some extra time.

The museum’s main focus was on the early modern period, with some medieval history thrown in too. There were many interesting paintings and other works of art. Most notably this museum houses the original weathervane from the Town Hall opposite. There is good wifi through which visitors are able to access a complementary audio or visual guide

That is museum dedicated to the history of the city of Brussels. Very nice historic building and its free for the teachers as like any other public museum, the proof should be shown at the cacheers.

Quite a good little museum with lots of historical information and artifacts about Brussels. Not much to keep the kids interested, but it was still one of our favourite places we visited in Brussels. Relatively cheap to enter and there were free lockers to put bags so that you didn't have to carry them along the museum. The mystery is over 3 levels.

The Brussels City Museam, a Gothic style architectural wonder, was built in 1887 at the Grand Place in Brussels, Belgium. In 1936, the building was designated a historic site and in 1998 it was declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site along with the rest of the Grand Place. The museum is devoted to the history of Brussels fine and applied arts, the origin and development of the city, the history of the people of Brussels and the dressing room of that quintessentially Brussels symbol, Manneken-Pis! I would highly recommend a visit here. There are lots of other beautiful places to visit and spend time around the Museum. Give yourself atleast half a day if not a full day.

Incredible local history! Free audioguide for your mobile phone. 3 stories with stairs.

(Translated by Google) Not a bad museum, entrance costs 8 €. Before visiting, you need to register your visit on the museum website, you need to scan a barcode at the entrance. The museum has several floors, there is something to see.

(Translated by Google) It is a beautiful building and looks large from the outside, but what is shown is not what one expects. There is plenty of medieval, baroque and renaissance art material, but few explanations about the city, its demographic growth, racial integration, the EU theme, or the never-resolved language issue, etc. The icing on the cake is seeing the original Maniken Piss (top floor) and that really is a kitschy experience worth the walk. Now, compared to other city museums (the one in NY, London Amsterdam ..), this one leaves much to be desired because it does not include new technologies or anything that makes the experience more interactive. (Original) Es un edificio precioso y se ve grande por fuera, pero lo que se muestra no es lo que uno espera. Hay bastante material de arte medieval, barroco y renacimiento, pero pocas explicaciones sobre la ciudad, su crecimiento demográfico, integracion racial, tema UE, o el nunca resuelto tema del idioma, etc. La guinda de la torta es ver el Maniken Piss original (último piso) y eso realmente es una experiencia kitsch que vale la pena el paseo. Ahora, comparado con otros museos de ciudad (el de NY, Londres Amsterdam..), este deja mucho que desear porque no incluye nuevas tecnologías ni nada que haga la experiencia sea más interactiva.

(Translated by Google) Interesting museum, lots of information on the history of the city. (Original) Musée intéressant, beaucoup d’informations sur l’histoire de la ville.

This is the Brussels City Museum, a castle with beautiful tower in the square in the Old Quarter Center of Brussels, one of the most beautiful old squares in Europe.

Decent place.

(Translated by Google) Moving to a new apartment in the imagination of everyone is associated with the transportation of furniture, which often can not be brought in elevators, even trucks, and then the loaders have to pay extra for lifting your household treasure stairs. In Brussels, things are lifted to the apartment by special cranes through windows or balconies. Many houses do not have elevators or they are so small that they can barely fit two people. So you have no choice. A special car with a crane and loaders can be ordered through the district hall. Such services cost 80 euros per hour. At the time you ordered the faucet, the police block the sidewalk from which furniture will be lifted to your window. The carriage, which moves with things, makes loud shrill sounds, but all the neighbors endure it. After all, they were also once new settlers. (Original) Переїзд до нової квартири в уяві кожного пов’язується з перевезенням меблів, які часто не можна занести в ліфти, навіть вантажні, й тоді вантажникам доводиться доплачувати за підйом вашого домашнього скарбу сходами. У Брюсселі речі до помешкання піднімають спеціальними кранами через вікна або балкони. Ліфтів у багатьох будинках немає або вони такі маленькі, що в них ледь втискується двоє людей. Тож вибору у вас немає. Спеціальну машину із краном і вантажниками можна замовити через районну мерію. Коштують такі послуги 80 євро за годину. На час, на який ви замовили кран, поліція перекриває ділянку тротуару, з якої до вашого вікна підніматимуть меблі. Каретка, яка рухається з речами, видає голосні пронизливі звуки, але всі сусіди стійко це терплять. Адже теж колись були новоселами.

Historical place... In the town center of Brussels... Nice painting and decoration about the history of Brussels... Need to have a look... 😁

(Translated by Google) Het Broodhuis, Brussels City Museum or Maison du Roi has several names because it also has a rich history. This beautiful building on the Grand Place in Brussels provides an overview of the activities and folklore of the city in the near past. The current building dates from the late 19th century and was designed by Victor Jamaer. It is protected and UNESCO world heritage. The Dutch name 'Broodhuis' dates from the 13th century when a wooden construction stood here where bread was sold. In 1405 the wooden hangar was replaced by stone and was given the name 's Hertogenhuys. In 1695 it was destroyed by bombardment by the French and only temporarily restored due to lack of money. In 1811 the building even passed into private hands and was used for the storage of horse feed. At the end of the 19th century it was demolished and rebuilt in the current neo-Gothic style. The museum is well worth a visit. Lots to see. And also some details from the construction of the town hall. (Original) Het Broodhuis, Brussels City Museum of Maison du Roi heeft meerdere namen omdat het ook een rijke geschiedenis heeft. Dit prachtige gebouw op de Brusselse grote markt geeft een overzicht van de activiteiten en folklore van de stad in het nabije verleden. Het huidige gebouw dateert van eind 19de eeuwe en is ontworpen door Victor Jamaer. Het is bescherm en UNESCO werelderfgoed. De Nederlandse naam 'Broodhuis' dateert van de 13de eeuw toen hier een houten constructie stond waar brood verkocht werd. In 1405 werd de houten hangaar vervangen door steen en kreeg de naam 's Hertogenhuys. In 1695 werd het door de Fransen vernield met een bombardement en door gebrek aan geld slechts voorlopig hersteld. In 1811 kwam het gebouw zelfs in privé-handen en diende het voor de opslag van paardenvoer. Eind 19de eeuw werd het gesloopt en heropgebouwd in de huidige neogotische stijl. Het museum is zeker de moeite waard. Veel te zien. En ook enkele details uit de bouw van het stadhuis.

Love to visit this museum. History really interesting. 👍👍

Fantastic place to visit with great atmosphere in the square and lively ambience all days but especially in the evenings when there’s music or concert. There’s some renovations work in progress that may restrict the view in one corner of the square but the charm is still there. A must visit place while in Brussels.

Gorgeous building filled with historical facts about Brussels. Definitely use the audio guide, it's available in English and gives lots of in depth information about the items you're looking at. This building also holds the original MannekenPis statue, the one in display in the city is a copy to protect the original from further damage. I very much enjoyed my visit here.

A very unjustly overlooked museum! Most tourists to Brussels stand in awe facing the central square's magnificent town hall and then move on to Manneken Piss. More should turn around and dare enter the excellent City Museum within the walls of the "King's House". Indeed, it will give the patient visitor with a taste of how the city evolved over time, from the early settlements along the river Senne (near the present Halles St-Géry) until the modern pedestrianisation of the central boulevard. Personally, it's the intermediate periods which I found most interesting, like for example the exposition detailing how Louis 14, the French sun-king, decided to bomb Brussels in 1695 "just for the lolz". Besides that, the building itself is a treasure worth of admiration. Rebuilt in the late 1800's to match its initial 16th century form (with some bonuses), it breathes the spirit of the mighty emperor Charles 5, born in Gent and destined to rule over an empire upon which the sun never set. The real sun-king! :-) Don't miss the beautiful tainted-glass windows along the inner staircase which display the armories of the various provinces in his dominion, including of course the tiny province of Brussels! Check out my IG accounts @vincentdegreve and @usheadedeast for more Belgian and international reviews

The tickets are joint to the entry to the GardeRobe Manneken-Pis (a display of the Manneken-Pis’s clothes)

Sitting in the center of the Grand Place, this museum leaves all hustle and bustle outside and provides a cool and serene atmosphere. With numerous artifacts, painting, sculptures, and tapestries, the museum tells the rich history of the city and the nation. I specifically enjoyed the large model displaying the City of Brussels in the 13th century. It really shows the life and landscape 800+ years back. The museum has the original Manneken Pis statue and some interesting stories behind it. There is a VR game to bring you back to the night when the city of Brussels was bombarded by the French troops. The building itself is beautiful with architectural charm. The entrance fee is included in the Brussels Card. If you don’t have a Brussels Card, a single entry ticket also enables you to go to the nearby Manneken Pis costumes museum. Well worth the visit.

A city museum that tells you the history of brussels, manneken pis, leopold, the square and so on. Neo-gothic style building draws the most attention. Note that its free on the first Sunday of every month.

Really cool museum with all sorts of objects! It's a nice size and you get to see quite a bit for free which is nice. The building itself is lovely but not very accessible as far as we could tell (only stairs).

Interesting Museum that has website audio guide. They have wifi for you can use the audio guide within the building. Recommended to bring your earphones so you can listen to the guide and explore the museum. Wish there were more types of souvenirs from the museum though. :)

One of the good city museum!! a lot of maps and explanations, multilingual and the building itself is attraction enough. Besides the uprising of brussels one, besides other stuff, also learns s lot about the city bombardement of 1695, the manneken pis and sees the former original statue living on top of hotel de ville.

Good museum, not too small or too big. Prices are good for students. Has a lot of information about how Brussels has developed, not as much painting art, though, unsurprisingly. Some cool views, too.

Very good experience. The museum can be covered in 45mn if you are in a tight schedule or if you want to see it nicely budget 2hrs. Good for kids, they offer free entrance on the 1st of the month.

Great museums and paintings are beautiful, they are telling us the story about old and modern Brussels and it has a very rich history, the city was and after different changes is a beautiful city.

A collection of images and artefacts that tell the story of the city of Brussels with an emphasis on the history and renovation of the Grand Place. My favorites were the Tapestries and the gilded Altarpiece. The building itself is noteworthy as an example of 19th century Gothic revival architecture.

This buildings are very famous, you can find on the fridge magnets...

Without seeing this museum, the city is kind of meaningless.

A great museum to get to know the city and its history better

Did you know the sculpture of Manneken Pis is not the real one. The real one is located a few metres away from it, in the Brussels City Museum. There are areas dedicated to stone work, wood work and ceramics of Brussels. Don't miss the very unique pot bellied ceramic sculptures that actually serve the function of a wine/beer disperser!!!!

Interesting to discover Brussel's history

The building is beautiful on all floors, but the wooden ceiling on 3rd floor is breathtaking.

definitely the place to go if you want to learn more about belgian and brussels history

Great place for sightseeing, love the building, you can spend at least half day just to admire the sculpture on the buildings

(Translated by Google) The architecture of the museum is very beautiful, but the exhibition is very poor, does not have much content and the information is not very well divided. It's not worth it, in my opinion. However, you can see the Museum on my YouTube channel "Beatriz Lamarosa" while visiting the Museum.

(Translated by Google) Rates are affordable and for minors it's free. This museum allows you to see the real manneken. The models are interesting to understand the evolution of the city. After the rest of the exhibition is interesting but not very attractive especially for teens and children. It's still old museology certainly interesting but boring :) A little youthful and I come back with pleasure! With the entrance we also have the entrance with the museum of manneken outfits. We also have a great view of the main square! (Original) Les tarifs sont abordables et pour les mineurs c'est gratuit. Ce musée permet de voir le vrai manneken pis. Les maquettes sont intéressantes pour comprendre l'évolution de la ville. Après le reste de l'exposition est intéressant mais pas très attractif surtout pour des ados et les enfants. C'est encore de vieille muséologie certes intéressante mais barbante :) Un petit coup de jeune et je reviens avec plaisir ! Avec l'entrée on a aussi l'entrée avec le musée des tenues du manneken. On a également une superbe vue sur la grand place !

(Translated by Google) Museum rather good, beautiful architecture. Bad communication about prices (we paid the full price when we are students) because of unfriendly staff. I frankly do not recommend it. In the end, it is the museum that we paid the most for in Brussels, although it was by far the least good (the visit to the Manneken Pis wardrobe included in the price saves the visit a little). Pity. (Original) Musée plutôt bien, belle architecture. Mauvaise communication au niveau des tarifs (on a payé le prix pleins alors que nous sommes étudiants) à cause de personnel peu avenant. Je ne le recommande franchement pas. C'est finalement le musée que nous avons payé le plus cher à Bruxelles alors qu'il était de loin le moins bon (la visite de la garde-robe du Manneken Pis comprise dans le prix sauve un peu la visite). Dommage.

In the period we went, the discount ticket was 2 Euros and the normal ticket was 4 Euros. You need to reserve at least 1 hour to visit this place. The ideal time is 1.5-2 hours. Especially the paintings depicting the burning of Brussels are very striking. You can visit the GardeRobe MannekenPis museum free of charge with the ticket you bought while visiting here.

It was awesome experience to have an idea of Brussels city. A nice place to visit and in about 2 hours you can know more about this wonderful city. For the foreigners that has moved recently I would say this is a must to have experience

Magnificent building. The museum is good to visit if you have time, but not a top attraction

That was not good time to visit city museum, but we enjoyed its view

I loved it!

It doesn't matter what exhibition they have, because the building itself is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen, inside and out an amazing experience. Pay attention to the details and buy the postcards/book markers!

Great museum that explains how Brussels was made from mediavel age. It's also the original maneken piss. There's an audio guide you can listen for free on your cell phone, so be sure to have you headphones handy.

Museum of the city of Brussels. Holds small collection of tapestries, paintings, wooden altarpiece, paintings and pictures. Also the authentic 'manneke pis' and the original pique of city hall

If you want to learn more about Brussels and the folklore then have a look at the City of Brussels museum, over two floors it will start at the early settlements to today, I suggest this is more of an rainy day activity unless you have an urge to know more about Brussels, having said that it is a on interesting visit.

Excellent museum where you can see the history of the city as well as many exhibits about the architecture of the city and the many customes made for the baby peeing fountain ... and the display about the tapestry restoration and explanation of this art... Well worthed the entrance fee

There is no unifying theme or organization to this museum. It is in a beautiful and historic building, but the artifacts don't measure up to the space they are in. There is a hodge-podge of items. There is a uninformative display of Leopold I, with nothing of substance indicated, and a little further along are glass display domes with stuffed bats. How are they related? The placards are in French and German(?) and no English, but an app can be downloaded to explain what you are seeing. The app, however, is not synchronized to the displays. Some are explained and others aren't. There are several numbers on displays, bit they don't match. The app. On the plus side, there is a free coat rack and lockers are only one EUR, which you get back when you are done. I wish I had not wasted my time on this museum.

It's an eye treat for history lovers. There is a lot to consume about the history of Brussels city. You can easily trace back to the hundreds of years of historical events. Changes and renovations over the period of time including taxtile art and crockeries.

Fantastic place in the heart of city to visit with great atmosphere in the square and lively ambience all days but especially in the evenings when there’s music or concert - it will be lively moments. There’s some renovations work in progress that may restrict the view in one corner of the square but the charm is still there. A must visit place while in Brussels. History of Brussels city and how it evolved. Also real Manneken Pis kept.

Nice place, quite small museum but with a good overview of the expansion of the city of Brussels. The thematic rooms have however only a couple of pieces in exhibition, be it beautiful ones.

Loved the architecture of this building. Beautiful to look at. Interesting museum inside also

It's a wonderful museum! And very reasonable admission. You must check it out
