Horta Gallery

Discover the Art Nouveau treasures of Brussels at the Hortamuseum, located in the former private home and studio of Belgian architectural icon (and a father of Art Nouveau) Victor Horta. Built between 1898 and 1901, the buildings contain masterpieces of restored mosaics, stained glass and murals. The museum regularly hosts rotating exhibitions about Horta, his life and work, and his contemporaries, and there is also a library containing over 6,000 volumes on Art Nouveau. Horta's four major townhouses—Hôtel Tassel, Hôtel Solvay, Hôtel van Eetvelde, and the Maison & Atelier Horta (today the Hortamuseum)—are listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites.
