Place Eugène Flagey / Eugène Flageyplein

The Place Eugène Flagey (French) or Eugène Flageyplein (Dutch), usually shortened to the Place Flagey, or Flagey[1] by locals, is a square in the Brussels municipality of Ixelles, Belgium. It bears the name of a former mayor of Ixelles, Eugène Flagey (1877–1956).

With ten streets converging there, the Place Flagey is one of the best connected crossroads in the city, directly adjacent to the neighbouring Ixelles Ponds. Until 1937, the square was known as the Place Sainte-Croix/Heilig-Kruisplein, but this name only now applies to the square in front of the Church of the Holy Cross on the south-western corner.

Le Flagey, known as the Flagey Building in English, is a remarkable Art Deco building, former headquarters of the Belgian National Institute of Radio Broadcasting and now a cultural centre. It is located on the south-western corner of the square with its entrance on the Place Sainte-Croix.
