Description:

The Atomium, a mythical building from the 58 world expo, is shining brightly. You can discover several exhibitions in the spheres, during an original trail. You will also be able to enjoy the exceptional view on the city of Brussels. One sphere is designed by Alicia Framis and is reserved for children and schools: it is destined to the organisation of urban educational workshops and can accommodate school groups for "city classes". Animations, film screenings, a boutique and a restaurant at the top complete your visit to one of the most terrific buildings from the 50s.
