Springs Park

Highlight • Forest

The park owes its name to the many springs that feed its pond. Former domain of the Solvay family, the park was landscaped in the English style at the beginning of the 20th century and endowed with a small castle, out of sight in the abundant green flora of the site, which will serve as a residence for the family. Solvay. On the death of Louis Solvay, the park was partly taken over by the Blaton family with the intention of developing a real estate project there, a project that would never see the light of day. The commune of Woluwe-Saint-Lambert acquired the other part and transformed it into a public park.

A true ecological node with reed bed, pond, stream, humid forest and dry forest, the entire park has been classified as a nature reserve since 1994.

A former railway line linking Brussels to Tervueren in the past, the route has since been converted into a promenade of some 10 kilometers for pedestrians and cyclists, but not only! This corridor also plays an important role in terms of biodiversity, notably facilitating the migration of many animal species. A pleasant way to get around the capital under the trees, along parks and ponds and away from car traffic.

Keep your eyes open as you pass by: an old station platform and rails, forming a modern sculpture, recall the origin of this walk!

In the Museum of Urban Transport in Brussels you will find an extensive collection of vehicles that have driven on the streets of the capital, over a period of more than a century.

During the weekends of the opening season, which runs from April to September, you can drive through Brussels in one of the historic vehicles. This way you relive the atmosphere of the early twentieth century on the Tervurenlaan and in the Zoniënwoud.

A tram line with old trams allows you to discover the different districts between the museum and Place Royale: the Cinquantenaire Park, the European district, the square district, and so on. Finally, you can also rent the museum halls and vehicles for different types of events.
