St. Elizabeth's Church

Saint-Servais church is a neo-gothic church built between 1871 and 1876. The construction was based on the plans of the architect Gustave Hansotte. The old Saint-Servais church, located below, at the level of the monumental vase on the Avenue Louis Bertrand, was only demolished in 1905. This former church, in Gothic style, was the heart of the village of Schaerbeek. The two churches coexisted for some thirty years.

The Church of St. Suzanne was built on private initiative from 1926 to 1928. It was built on the initiative of Mrs Louise Thiery, in memory of her daughter Suzanne who died at the age of 20. The church was designed by the architect Jean Combaz, who drew up the plans in 1925. The Art Deco style building was completely renovated between 2014 and 2018.

A Gothic church, whose choir is still visible in the cemetery, has existed in Laeken since the 13th century. The old church was destroyed in 1872-3 to make way for the new church of Our Lady of Laeken, which was commissioned by Leopold I to house the remains of his wife Queen Louise-Marie of Orléans. Since then, this splendid neo-gothic church has served as a necropolis for the Belgian royal family.
