Art Nouveau is an artistic and architectural style that flourished around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Brussels is regarded as one of the movement's principal centres, where renowned architects such as Victor Horta created iconic buildings filled with organic forms and decorative details. The style left a distinctive imprint on Brussels's architecture and contributed to the city's unique character. In 2023, Belgium issued a commemorative €2 coin dedicated to Art Nouveau in Brussels, available in BU quality in a commemorative card.
