Description:
The Place du Jeu de Balle or Vossenplein is located in the heart of the Marolles, the Brussels working-class district par excellence. This square was also known as the "Vieux Marché" (old market). The "Jeu de Balle" district was established in 1854, at the same time as the Rue Blaes. It went by the name of "Renard" (fox) because it lay alongside the Rue du Renard, which already existed in the 15th century. This authentic and cosy place is especially known for its flea market which is held every morning. You will meet antique lovers, strollers, occasional visitors... You should definitely make a stop at an outdoor café with a delicious beer and enjoy the live music, especially during the summer.
