There are three major symbols of the city of Brussels . The Atomium, Grand Place (of which we soon) and Manneken pis, which is a small statue of a boy urinating into one source. Several legends behind this statue, but the best known is the fact that commemorates Julianske the boy who saved the city to turn the wick with his urine that they had planted explosives enemies to bring down the walls of the city. They say that in 1338 the statue was in stone but in 1619 he was replaced by a brass that has been stolen several times and what we can find now is a replica.
Curiously, we noted that the jet is not always water, but at parties
ed Desta was beer and wine. also in certain dates, usually dressed with different outfits, have been so many costumes, that are more than 700 costumes in an exhibition at the Museum of the City.
counterpoint is the Manneken Pis Jeanneke statue dated 1987, which is located about equidistant from the main square it, but the other side. is hidden in an alley to look. Did the find?
