Der imposante Triumphbogen im Parc du Cinquantenaire (Jubelpark) ist ein beeindruckendes Beispiel für neoklassizistische Architektur und wurde 1905 anlässlich des 75. Jahrestags der belgischen Unabhängigkeit errichtet, um ein hölzernes Bauwerk zu ersetzen, dass zum 50. Jahrestag errichtet wurde. Der Bogen zeichnet sich durch seine monumentale Größe und Pracht aus. Er hat eine Breite von etwa 30 Metern, eine Höhe von etwa 45 Metern und ist mit beeindruckenden Skulpturen und Reliefs geschmückt, die belgische Geschichtsthemen darstellen. In den seitlichen Flügeln sind ein Militär Museum und ein archäologisches Museum untergebracht.

Breathtaking monument in a beautiful park. The architecture of the arc is amazing. It is surrounded by a well kept park as well as museums such as autoworld and the military museum where you can get a ticket to the top of the arc for panoramic views! Absolutely worth a visit.

Beautiful and very imposing arch to commemorate Belgian independence. It's absolutely enormous and surrounded by a large park as well. Apparently you can climb up to the top through one of the museums attached to the impressive arch, but they were closed on the day I visited.

Visiting the Triumphal Arch in Brussels during the summer was an absolute delight. The sunny weather accentuated the beauty of this iconic landmark. The arch's intricate details and stunning architecture were even more impressive up close. The surrounding gardens were in full bloom, creating a picturesque setting. Walking through the arch was like stepping into history. It's a must-visit attraction that becomes even more enchanting in the summer months.

Auf jeden Fall ein Besuch wert, leider hatte das Militärmuseum Montags geschlossen, doch ein Spaziergang durch den Park mit Besichtigung des Triumphbogen lohnt sich.

Great architecture, nice garden, worth the visit.

Triumphal Arch stands glorious. After passing the Arch, you go into a big park. Metro line 1 and 5 are in 5 minutes walking distance and no entrance fee is required. You can also visit car (and aircraft) museum.

The arch is a beautiful structure. I went to see it because of a postcard I had. I loved it but I was saddened to see a parking lot right in front of the arch. There is a park which is an ideal place to spend an afternoon or go for a short run.

Oh how surprised I was, when it suddenly popped up in front of me, going through the park. It's AMAZING. So big, so well made, so nicely fitting as an entrance to the big and beautiful park. I loved it. I only wish the statues were cleaned.

The iconic Arc of Triumph of Brussels maybe smaller than its older brother in Paris, but the more beautiful and picturesque it looks. Take metro 1 and exit at the Schuman station. The park itself is worth a walk on its own, but head east towards the Arc de Triomphe-Triomfboog. You can visit the Royal Museum of Armed Forces and while you at it, don't forget to climb up the terrace and enjoy view of the historical parts of the town. It is for free :)

Walked through the park right up to and through this massive and beautiful arch. It was built for the 50th anniversary of Belgium's formation in 1880. I was reminded of Berlin's Brandenburg Gate. Very impressive!

Every city has its triumph Arch and this is the one in Brussels ! The monument of Cinquantenaire is one of the best triple arch i have seen ! It is located relatively close to the European complex so it’s very easily accessible by transport or by walk, especially when you cross the park of cinquantenaire wich is an amazing and huge city park ! The arch is topped by a beautiful bronze sculpture ! Photo opportunity is at its best here ! Every side can provide an amaizing background !

Great place to visit. An amazing park to ride/walk through. Would 100% recommend a visit if you are into history or just want to see some cool sites This site also has the history of armed forces museum and the auto world! Great center for museum culture

You will get to see a beautiful fountain and a park in front of Triumphal Arch. And if you are car lover you can visit Vintage Car Museum there too.

A good place with an aura suitable for starting ambitious hikes and projects. After passing under this arch, you feel like a successor to the work of great ancestors who did not spare themselves for the sake of great goals and ideals.

A beatiful park with magnificent landmarks. It is an honr to witness the belgium national day, july 21, 2023.

It's so beautiful! Too bad it was raining when i arrived. Worth to visit

Amazing structure that is part of a huge green space in Brussels. Impressive Arch and attached buildings.

This is a nice Triumphal Arc. Was there on the final hours of the sun setting on a pleasant afternoon and it was a perfect way to end my Brussels trip. Both sides of the arc are a joy, there’s a large fountain on one side and a well maintained park on the other - where I joined many locals to soak the summer rays. There were market stalls open on the water fountain sides when I was there on a Friday.

Visited this on our visit to Brussels and loved it Once went on day of famous marathon Next day went again in evening and thirs time spent another 3 hours in sunshine there Lovely place Much better than the similar arch/es in Berlin and Paris Should be a must-visit place if you are travelling yo Brussels

Triumphal arch has a huge garden in front of it and triumphal arch itself is so big and looks amazing with the architecture and the construction, big Belgium flag in the middle make more beauty to the arch , this has the army museum inside this we need to take ticket , people come with blanket and sit as a family and kinds play here . So good to be here . Best places in Belgium to spend weekend . When you live in Belgium, you can spend day here .

It it a nice place situated in a park. In the park during summer there are places where one can buy beer or some snacks. In the Arch there are museum of nature (nothing special), museum of army (excelent), museum of art (don't know). At night the Arch is nicely illuminated.

What a majestic piece of architecture. The nearby park gives this place a good vibe. People are lounging, playing with kids and hang out with their family when the weather is nice.

Lovely place, must visit spot in Brussels

Iconic monument of Belgium. Nice to see the flags change from time to time or the military parade passing through it. Great spot to admire and enjoy some open-air time.

Beautiful monumental place.

What a great Gate. Go there in the evening during sundowning or in the morning. Look the pictures. Nice place to chill on the green. Some food trucks there. For examplethe Waffle truck.

I could say that this is my favorite park in Brussels aside from the fact that I live nearby. Full of trees, parrots which can be noisy sometimes, well maintained statues, flower beds which change per season, picturesque arches and fountain. Gets crowded in summer coz the park has public gym, a race track, football mini courts, pétanque areas, a mosque and the big open lawn for picnics in summer. Waffles are sold around the area by those mobile vans and there are museums that you can visit. Check the online site coz sometimes, they are free.

Magical place. You can feel the history there and have for example picnic around.

Impressive commemorative arcades decorating the parc of the cinquantainaire

Beautiful what I heard is that it was constructed to celebrate 50 years of Independence from Netherlands

Beautiful arch with a very nice park next to it. Definitely worth a visit

Beautiful structure. You can visit the top to see the panoramic views with the ticket to the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History.

No way at all to explain the magnificence of this monument to the independence of Belgium! The copper figures of ladies are carefully detailed and discolored to a magical shade of green.

Strolled along the park and saw this beautiful structure. This is truly an architecture masterpiece with the beautiful arches and the fountain in front of it. I didn’t manage to take a photo with the fountain in it as it was night time ,but will come back to do so in near future. Will recommend everyone to take your time to enjoy the view around the area as it is very beautiful.

Beautiful monument. Lovely to walk towards from the city center. Very quite on a Sunday morning.

Great place to hang out within Brussels and one of the iconic locations. Quite lively with young crowd around.

Very very big :) If you want to explore the hole park, you probably need a day :) Clean, beautiful and relaxing place.

This was a spectacular view and experience while visiting Brussels. Really loved the architecture and the massive flag hanging in the middle of the Arch. When in Brussels this is truly a place you have to see!

Beautiful place and very imposing arch to commemorate Belgian independence.
