    A pointless building and an architectural abomination compared to the Residence Palace which it is attached to like a grotesque tumour. As someone who has the misfortune to work there sometimes (as a journalist) I testify to its poor quality as building

    Interesting to visit and see the place where a lot of EU policies are made in the Council. Otherwise there is not that much to see... Standard office building with a lot of meeting rooms and diplomats. Although just next to it is new Europa building with interesting architecture, I personally prefer Justus because in my opinion it is more usable and the food in restaurant is much better and cheaper then in Europa.

    (Translated by Google) CORONA CHAOS IN EUROPE POST TRANSPORT DOESN'T WORK IN THE EU. EUROPEAN FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS ARE NO LONGER EXISTING. IF I CANNOT TRAVEL MORE, IT WOULD BE MORE IMPORTANT THAT AT LEAST POST TRAFFIC WILL WORK. So here is one of the places where European citizens are fooled by absurd decisions. The fraud and deception of European citizens is confirmed to me by the new president. UvdL made decisions during her tenure as German Defense Minister, which I personally consider to be questionable. (Original) CORONA CHAOS IN EUROPA NICHT EINMAL DER POSTVERKEHR FUNKTIONIERT NOCH IN DER EU. DIE EUROPÄISCHEN GRUNDRECHTE SIND NICHT MEHR EXISTENT. WENN ICH SCHON NICHT MEHR REISEN KANN, WÄRE ES UMSO WICHTIGER, DASS WENIGSTENS DER POSTVERKEHR FUNKTIONIEREN WÜRDE. Hier ist also einer der Orte, an denen Europäische Bürger, durch absurde Entscheidungen verarscht werden. Der Betrug und die Täuschung der europäischen Bürger wird für mich durch die neue Präsidentin bestätigt. UvdL hat während ihrer Amtszeit als deutsche Verteidigungsministerin Entscheidungen getroffen, die ich persönlich als hinterfragungswürdig erachte.

    It's where Council working groups meet - 27 governments working together for the greater good. Often has small exhibitions by whichever country is currently holding the 6-month rotating presidency.

    Nice architecture, eye catching !

    I encountered a perplexing situation while moving my filming equipment boxes. Since I was handling all three boxes alone, I devised a plan to move two of them outside first and return for the third box shortly after. However, I encountered a challenge when the security personnel refused to let me leave one of the boxes near the scanning machine. Although I understood their concern, I proposed relocating it back to my TV stand. Surprisingly, they remained unwavering in their refusal, even though it was still well before closing time. Despite the frustration, I made a conscious decision not to escalate the situation further. However, I believe it is essential to mention this incident that occurred during the summit in June.

  • 2/5 Pavol B. 5 years ago on Google • 33 reviews
    This building is one part of the "holy trinity" of the EU institutions. Its footprint is large, with spacious auditorium and it is a labyrint of hallways and meeting rooms. For a newcomer, it is difficult to navigate. It has bacis services, a dining area, two caffeterias and vending machines on each floor. You can store your luggage in many lockers throughout the building.
