European Parliament

Amaizing building complex with all European Union related places and hotspots for tourists.

Many are unfortunately not accessible for the public but the hemicycle is ! Note that the entrance to that is in front of the “berlin wall

The big flags on the side of the building look great ! There is security everywhere 👍🏻

Free clean toilets on the inside and free water (sparkling or still). Art can be found in the hallways and the public can access the hemicycle on from the 4th floor. The hemicycle was under maintenance during my visit.

The whole area is interesting to visit and look around. It’s a place where decisions are made for the whole Europe and the architecture is pretty cool.

Highly recommended to visit. The entrance is free, you get an audio guide and you need ro reserve a place in advance (but you can do it even the day before). If you go there, I suggest also visiting Wiertz Museum, which is free as well.

What an AMAZING visit!!!
For a 30 minute to an hour you can learn about the European parliament and it's work and responsibilities and all of these with an audio - visual guide in your own language!!!
And of course you can see the Hemicycle!!!
You can make a reservation easily and without any cost!!
If you are in Brussels you have to get here!!!!

Entrance is free, but reservation is needed - however, no need to make it very much in advance, I made it on my smartphone only 15 mins before entering. There is a security check like at the airports and a locker-room. Make sure you bring your ID or a passport. This is rather a short visit, it will not take more than an hour or even less, 30 mins if you do not really focus on an audio guide, as the only things to see are the Hemicycle and a very small art exhibition. It is worth to plan your visit at the Hemicycle with something else, like Parliamentarium or the House of European History.

It gives you goosebumps, walking through the Doors of the hemicicle!
It's amazing to see where everything happens, when it comes to European means.
I wasn't expecting so much emotion from beeing there 🥰

Great trip around, easy to book and get in. Audio guide was informative and quick to get through. A good experience if you are looking to do something for 1- 2 hours in Brussels.

Makes us miss being in the EU.

It was a wonderful place .The headquarters of the European Parliament in Brussels

You need to make a reservation to get the code to get in. It's free of charge

You can go inside as a visitor and get a free audio-guide, so cool.

Free touring with a native guide and ipads, you need to reserve your visit before. Unfortunately a big contrast is visible - trashes on the roundabout before the main exit, some man was sleeping on the ground... and "everything clean" inside. You will receive headphones also for guide, which Goes to the trash bin after this. The same in both buildings. But emission norms are more important

Very interesting experience. The visit is free but the content of the museum is very consistent. Highly recommended and remember that the complete visit could take even 3 hours so save at least half of the day to visit it. I would come back again to visit it with more calm.

In one word- magical, just magical. Don’t need to book your appointment beforehand. Be sure to bring your passport/ID when you visit. Staffs were super friendly and polite. Must visit the powerhouse of Europe at least once when you are in Brussels.
Visit time: 20-30mins

"European Parliament" is the place where I get my best experience in my Life in year 2019 when I visited the Parliament.
I visited parliament and sited in the European Parliament Sit which I never forget. And in the tour, they provide all necessary information its really interesting.
If you visit Belgium then try to visit the place.

Its free to visit.. The main chamber is great and feels good to be seeing all of it. Dont miss out!!

Visiting the Parliament was a unique experience. We even got the opportunity to send postcards for free to friends and family. Security staff was charming and friendly. I totally recomend a visit. The tour is not excessively long but anytime interesting.
You won't forget nor regret.

It is interesting seeing this place live.

Belgium is HQ of EU, the building design is just amazing!

The European Parliament offers free visitor's admissions of its building, providing information pamphlets, audio guides and access to the main chamber. Highly recommended when visiting Brussels.

A must see for everyone visiting Brussels.
The visitor center gives you an interesting audio tour, and you can see the Hemicycle.
