Yes! this place is a must-visit. It just received (today) the MuseumPrice for the best museum in Brussels. One could easily miss it because from the outside it looks like a normal house, but inside it is unbelievable ! Just go for it...

The museum is the former house of Victor Horta. The art-noveau decoration is definitely worth seeing - you will want to have traces of that in your own house. The ticket price is also reasonable, especially if you are a student.
Due to structural reasons, the museum house has a limited capacity so you might have to wait for a...

Horta's buildings were mostly demolished in the 60s (In 1965 I stood outside the Maison du Peuple when the bulldozers were about to do their stuff). This building was his house and studio; it has been meticulously re-furnished and renovated to give a sense of the art nouveau style in practice. The atrium over the staircase is worth the trip...

This is a real living museum,...

Prior to leaving for Belgium we had spotted this site on tripadvisor. Our hotel ended up being a 15 minute walk to the museum. The 3 Eu charge for entrance is well worth the money. Don't miss this museum if you like architecture.

This is well worth an hour during your stay in Brussels. Not a big wait, and not terribly expensive, but an amazing experience if you appreciate architecture and attention to detail. This is a penultimate example of art nouveau from one of its masters. It's a self-guided tour with no photography allowed (which was disappointing). Even my pre-teens could appreciate...
