Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert

A covered 19th-century arcade with cafés, shops and cultural venues between Grand-Place and central Brussels.

What to expect

Designed by Jean-Pierre Cluysenaer, construction of the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert began in 1846 and the galleries officially opened on 20 June 1847. Visit Brussels describes a lively mix of shops, cafés, restaurants, apartments and cultural venues; the covered passage is a useful rain-friendly link in the historic centre. The operator lists Gare Centrale and Bourse metro stations and the central railway station among the nearby connections.

Entry and costs

The visitor listings show no central admission ticket for walking through the arcade; shops, cafés, the cinema and theatre set their own prices and schedules. Do not rely on individual business hours as passage hours.

Visitor notes

The operator's access page lists tram routes 3, 4, 51, 92 and 94, metro stops Gare Centrale and Bourse, and the central railway station. Neither the operator nor the tourism listing publishes reliable passage opening hours, so check the operator's latest notice before a late visit.
