This self-guided audio tour leads through the heart of Koekelberg, slipping past the obvious to uncover dramatic secrets and overlooked corners most passersby will never notice. Why did priests and politicians once clash within the walls of the mighty Basilica of the Sacred Heart? What vanished relic still haunts the corridors of the Catholic University of Brussels? And whose footsteps disturbed the silent courtyard at midnight with a scandal that rippled across Belgium? Trace the tangled path of ambition and faith, revolution and revelation. Each turn reveals another side of Brussels, surging with stories that demand to be heard. Ready to see what hides beneath the city’s surface? Your discovery begins at the dome.
