1935 The First World War is still alive in the memory, but clouds of a new war are already visible on the horizon. Belgium is trying to act as a peacemaker and organizes an exhibition under the motto "Peace through competition". Several exhibition pavilions were built for this event. The central one (in the form of a pyramid with four statues on top) was built without the use of traditional columns. Instead, to increase the internal space, large concrete arches were made, which at that time was a constructive novelty.
But as we know, the war started anyway, but such a historical place remains. Later, other buildings were completed, well, there is something to show tourists : )
