De VZW Chinese Paleis en Landen van de Zijderoute

Met de wil om dit element van het Brusselse erfgoed duurzaam te behouden, zal het Chinese Paleis worden gerevitaliseerd volgens de volgende modaliteiten:

De VZW Chinese Paleis en Landen van de Zijderoute werd officieel opgericht in januari 2025. Zij brengt rond haar institutionele oprichters (Regie der Gebouwen) Belgische en buitenlandse personen samen die betrokken zijn bij de culturen van het Verre Oosten, zowel op cultureel als ondernemingsniveau. HKH Koningin Mathilde heeft het Hoog Patronaat aanvaard.

• The Institution will be responsible for monitoring the restoration of the China House and its annex, its future operating equipment, its maintenance and its animation in agreement with the Royal Commission for Monuments and Sites and with the collaboration of the Royal Museums of Art and History.
• The association will guarantee the operation and quality of the new use of the China House, based on the general theme of the Silk Roads, which have marked trade between East and West since Antiquity. In concrete terms, this means cultural, and tourist related activities (permanently open to the public during the day), diplomatic objectives and friendly relations between Belgian/European and Chinese companies. As an exclusive club, the annex to the China House will become the venue for exclusive meetings and events (conferences, meetings, dinners, cocktails, etc.), whether institutional or private.
• This project is essentially inspired by the importance of the Orient in the 21st century in terms of trade, business, tourism and eventually peace. Being lucky enough to have a site of this quality in Brussels, which has been a symbol of Belgo-Chinese trade and relations from the outset, it is an ideal opportunity to maintain activities that reflect both the original objectives and current realities.
