The most famous Brussels citizen has been peeing on the corner of Rue du Chêne and Rue de l'Etuve for centuries and continues to amaze.

This famous statuette was created by Jérôme Duquesnoy, a renowned 17th-century sculptor. His style is in the tradition of gaillardes fountains. The artist gave a baroque interpretation of the urinating child motif. A Brussels citizen in his own right, he is associated with the city's events, for which he is usually dressed. From time to time, the flowing water is replaced by beer.

Manneken-Pis has a less media-friendly but equally cheeky little sister, Jeanneke-Pis, crouched at the end of the impasse de la Fidélité.

tout petit mais a voir surtout quand il est déguisé : des tas de costumes différents offerts par d'autres pays ou des associations

Haut comme trois pommes, avec ses 58 cm, Manneken Pis est passé du statut de fontaine à celui de symbole de Bruxelles, connu dans le monde entier. Cette statue incarne l'insouciance et la résistance bruxelloises.

Ce coin de Bruxelles me semble la plus touristique. Il n'y a que des magasins de souvenirs, bonbons, et gaufres. La statue elle-même est très petite et quand on la visitait il y avait une démonstration catalane. Je vous recommande de rester vigilant dans cet endroit car il y a des pickpockets qui attendent des victimes faisant leurs photos ici.

Très mignonne et drôle de petite statue, je l'imaginais un peu plus grande. un grand lieu d'influence touristique donc n'hésitez pas à y venir tôt le matin. N'hésitez pas à y aller tous les jours car on a eu la surprise de le voir habillé.
