Saint Gilles is a residential district, 1-hour drive from the city center of Belgium, well-known for its indie galleries and art nouveau buildings. Horta Museum is the place to visit if you adore the architect, Victor Horta, and appreciate art nouveau stained glass, mosaics, and furnishings. But if you like to deal with a little unknown and often find strange things oddly eye-catching, then walk over to Musée d'Art Fantastique. This may not be suitable for toddlers and young children. Do pay Hallepoort museum a visit as well. This museum is filled with Brussels’ history and you can get a good view from the top of the tower. Check out these top Airbnb vacation rentals in Saint Gilles and we will unveil what’s in and around the neighborhood as we go along.
