En un regard
Le château en bref
Château Sainte-Anne stands in Auderghem, on the edge of the Sonian Forest (rue du Vieux Moulin 103). The property belonged to Henri de Brouckère, brother of the mayor of Brussels, when it was acquired in 1902 by Charles Waucquez, a wealthy textile merchant, who had it entirely rebuilt by the architect Louis Sauvage. The result, in a more ostentatious style than the Art Nouveau practised by Victor Horta for Waucquez's shops, reflects the taste of the Brussels business bourgeoisie of the early twentieth century for showy residences. Today, the château is run as a venue for receptions: its salons host private parties, business lunches, lectures and seminars, while its great hall is used mainly for concerts, cocktail parties and dance evenings. Its park is presented as one of the last green clearings on the edge of the forest.
