Le Parc du Cinquantenaire

Parc du Cinquantenaire

Parc du Cinquantenaire (French) or Jubilee Park (English) is an urban public park with a complex of buildings in the eastern part of the European District of Brussels, Belgium.

The park is dominated by the 1880 triumphal arch in the middle, and the horse-shoe shaped buildings surrounding the park esplanade.

Today the various buildings of the Cinquantenaire host the Royal Museums for Art and History, the Royal Army and Military History Museum and the AutoWorld automobile museum. In the summer, the esplande park is used for diverse purposes, such as military parades and drive-in movies.[citation needed] It is also the starting point of the annual 20 km of Brussels, a run with 25,000 participants, is started in the park.
