This autumn: Guided tours of the European Parliament’s art collection

Did you know that the European Parliament hosts a permanent art exhibition displaying pieces by contemporary artists from across the EU? A limited number of afternoon guided tours in Brussels are now available to the public.

The European Parliament’s rich collection of contemporary art, which brings together works by artists from across the EU, is a celebration of the EU’s motto – ‘United in Diversity’. Contemporary art holds a prominent place in the Parliament, with over 500 artworks spread across its key working spaces. It is a daily reminder of the EU’s journey so far and what is yet to be built and created.

The growing art collection spans over 50 years of EU achievements and aspirations and the Parliament often showcases different artworks through thematic exhibitions and dedicated events.

This autumn, visitors can explore this unique collection thanks to occasional guided tours in the Parliament’s premises in Brussels. In the coming weeks, you can join one of the following tours:

Tuesday 6 October | 16:30 | English
Monday 12 October | 15:00 | Italian
Thursday 15 October | 13:00 | German
Tuesday 20 October | 17:00 | French
