30 Lumens Is That Bright?

Petition to save the heritage of Saint-Servais


Hello to you all,

The former restaurant, The Fig Tree ', located at 196, Chaussee de Waterloo is for sale. A 'petition' to circulate that the building be saved in its authenticity. We need your help to alert the authorities competent and aware of any potential buyer's interest to preserve the facade. Better to act before it's too late ...

Magnificent buildings, which were designed by Victor Horta (as the people's house) were destroyed in Brussels, in the 70 to allow the construction of 'buildings'. Today, the regrets are bitter, it's a tremendous loss ...

Namur The house in question is the 'big sister' of the House Mucha, whose facade has been renovated recently with further support from Small popular heritage Wallon (sgraffito). These terraced houses were built together in 1903 and signed by the architects E. Corthouts. Both style of Art Nouveau ', unfortunately not classified (or not ...), they are still witnesses of our architectural heritage Walloon.

To give you an idea attached two photos: Photo 232: homes sisters before renovation. The 5509 photos: the sgraffito renovated, the facade cleaned and preserved the chassis.

A big thank you in advance and pass the info to friends and acquaintances sensitive to the preservation of our heritage!

Muriel Charon
