This beautiful train station building was constructed between 1895 and 1905. It’s an absolute epic building amongst Belgium’s railway stations.

The architectural perspective is awesome, with windows and natural light versus the light pillars. Truly eyeball art!

Even the steel construction itself is a piece of art. And looking at it, a lot of glass is used to have as much natural light as possible. Remember, at the time they build this electricity was not a commodity.
