The open-air museum “Bruegel in the Pajottenland” in Dilbeek has been open to visitors since
2004. You can walk the Bruegel path or cycle the Bruegel route and, along the way, admire 19 large-scale
reproductions of paintings by Pieter Bruegel the
Elder, also called Pieter I Bruegel. Twelve reproductions were selected because they contain – some
definitely, others probably – recognizable elements of Dilbeek and the Pajottenland. Seven others illustrate the many talents of
Bruegel. One reproduction is placed behind the Dilbeek town hall. The 18 others
are positioned along the Bruegel walking
path (8 km) and the northern loop of the Bruegel bicycle
route (45 km). Both paths start off from the small church of St. Anna Pede, which can be reached from Brussels Midi Station by
bus 118 of De Lijn
or by car coming from exit 13 of the ring round Brussels. Map A dvd (GB,F,D, NL/ 15 min/€ 5,00),a brochure (GB,F,D, 48 pages, € 3,00) and the bicycle route
pamphlet (€ 1,75) can be ordered from toerisme@dilbeek.be |
