Holy Trinity Church
The Church of the Holy Trinity is a 19th-century religious building, whose 17th-century baroque facade is that of the former church of the Augustinians, demolished in 1893 to allow the creation of the Place de Brouckère. In the 19th century, as part of the development of the Avenue Louise, Léopold I wanted to develop and urbanise the Dix Bosch district in Ixelles. He had a temporary chapel built there (between 1847 and 1857) on land donated by the banker Georges Brugmann, who also contributed to its financing. The new church was built between 1893 and 1907, the architects being J. J. Van Ysendijck and Jacques Franquart.
