La Mémé (Lucien Kroll student housing)

La Mémé

MonumentLocal favourite

After May 1968, UCL students demanded a say in their new campus and chose Lucien Kroll, who built this participatory, ecological student block with a roof garden. Bruzz calls it by far the oddest building in Brussels; only architecture fans find it.

Good to know

  • Take the metro to Alma: Kroll designed that station too, with Gaudi-like colours and shapes.
  • It is student housing: do not enter.
