The oldest Brussels cemetery still in use, around the choir of the old Laeken church, with underground burial galleries, the chapel of the singer La Malibran and an original cast of Rodin's Thinker on the grave of art dealer Joseph Dillen. Bruzz put it in its 2025 guide; tourists see the royal church next door and walk away.
