Arcade galleries in Brussels

The shopping galleries in Brussels are multiple covered walkways in the center of the capital city of Belgium. The galleries form glass-roofed pedestrian streets on which shops are situated.

History

Most of these gallery "passages" were built in the first half of the 19th century. Brussels had about 50 such galleries around 1850, of which a few still exist.
