4sq SUs BelgiumJanuary 4, 2016One of four private houses designed by Victor Horta and listed as UNESCO World Heritage, this is where the pioneering art nouveau architect lived and worked. A must visit for architecture lovers.

European ParliamentMarch 25, 2014Enter the restored home of Belgium’s chief art nouveau master, one of the 2014 EU Prize for Cultural Heritage winners. The jury was particularly impressed with the precision and attention to detail. Read more
- Rebecca DanglerJune 13, 2018An architectural masterpiece! Photography is not allowed, so be prepared to stash your camera & phone in the lobby lockers. Take your time exploring each floor of this intricate Art Nouveau home.
- 4sq SUs BelgiumJanuary 4, 2016Cast iron, steel and glass elements, curved organic lines, meticulous attention to the smallest detail. Discover the beauty of art nouveau in the house of Horta, one of Belgium's best known architects
Wim LonckeNovember 5, 2015Worth the visit. Takes about an hour to see all rooms and details. A bit expensive at 10 euro pp. but if you're into architecture this is a must see
VISITBRUSSELSJanuary 24, 2014The Horta Museum is established in the private house of the famous architect, Victor Horta. Built between 1898 and 1901, the two buildings are characteristic of Art Nouveau at its peak. Read more
Kate N.July 25, 2021Organisers did everything to make it NOT visitors friendly! The stuff controls when you’re allowed to enter the stairs, where you keep your purse, yelling if someone tries to take a phone pic etc.
TomAugust 30, 2016Fantastic being able to see how people lived in and with art nouveau. Well worth the visit. Beautiful condition and tons to see.
Ellie BJuly 19, 2013Lovely little museum, beautiful house and furniture, albeit a bit empty. There's nowhere to sit down there at all so make sure you are well rested before going in :)
KanticaMay 17, 2016Horta's house is impressive. However, staff is rude, queues are long, rooms are packed with other visitors and price is really high, so that puts a damper on the experience as a whole...
Rozan DéboDecember 7, 2014Nice museum, inside a Horta house. 7€ for 30-40min of visit, not really cheap. But if you like new art style it is the place to be
Nigel OMay 29, 2013Only really consider visiting if you are an art nouveau property fan. There is nothing about Horta or much more than just walking around a small house. Weekends be prepared to queue for 40mins+
Christopher LornSeptember 25, 2016The balcony has a pretty great view. Although small, the entrance fee is only 10 euro and makes it a worthwhile visit
Marianne ClarkAugust 8, 2019Beautiful example of art nouveau. You can relax in the garden after your visit and enjoy the quiet.
Kim GammelgaardFebruary 15Well worth the money and you must check opening hours, but no photography without special morning tour- Alice BraggionJanuary 10, 2015The amazing house of the architect and artist Victor Horta. You must visit this place if you are in Bruxelles.
Aline BrandãoOctober 19, 2015Don't let the bland exterior and the queue discourage you - the interiors are truly mesmerizing. It's small, so the whole visit shouldn't take more than 40min. A pity that we can't take photos inside.- Ádám TakácsMarch 11, 2016Interesting place, but you can only see a limited part of the building. Probably the queue takes more time than the visit itself.
- JDecember 8, 2015Small but really pretty. A bit expensive considering one takes 30mins max to see everything
Amaury HenderickNovember 16, 2015Take a stroll through Sint-Gillis afterwards. It's an Art Nouveau gold mine!
Eric van der LindenSeptember 2, 2022Don’t forget to take a walk in the neighbourhood. Full of Art Nouveau.
Boris GougeonAugust 30, 2015Crazy house, visit not well organized and would need some more explanations.
Charlotte KDecember 29, 2013No photography allowed. All bags, cameras and coats to be checked into the cloakroom.
Simone ChiarettaJune 18, 2011Open everyday from 14 to 17:30 except Mondays. Costs 7€, included wardrobe.
JérémyAugust 10, 2015Seulement 45 personnes sont autorisées en même temps, vous devrez certainement faire la queue. Photos interdites. Ne manquez pas le chauffe-eau dans la salle de bain ! Le lieu est magnifique !!
- Good food BXL & coJanuary 31, 2016Magnifique demeure que Horta a pensé dans les moindres détails pour la rendre fonctionnelle et somptueuse. À voir absolument.
Verónica BlazherNovember 14, 2015Está muy chulo, es una pasada y un lío de casa. Eso sí, por 4€ de estudiantes muy bien, pero los 8 de la entrada normal me parecen una pasada. No se pueden hacer fotos y te persiguen para comprobarlo.
Loïc P.February 9, 2018Une maison qui recèle de nombreuses pièces originales. Une merveille d'architecture. À voir quand on aime ce style !
JDFebruary 23, 2017Niet te missen, ook voor Brusselaars! Heel rare man aan de ingang die iedereen aanmaant alles in lockers achter te skaten, spreekt geen woord Nederlands en stinkt uit zijn mond. Ongemakkelijk!
Anne CrollenOctober 26, 2016C'est magnifique!Les guides sont vraiment passionnantes et indispensables.j'ai passé un moment magique.
Jean-Philippe TriglaMarch 8, 2015Magnifique endroit à visiter. Où l'on approche l'intimité de l'architecte.
Arix BiApril 21, 2015Carino ma mi aspettavo molto di più. Poco curato e pochissime descrizioni. Aperto mar/dom 14-17.30 8 euro intero e 4 ridotto
