How to reach EHSAL?
We would not recommend you to come by car. EHSAL is in the very middle of the downtown area. Public transport (underground, tramways and buses) is convenient.
Make sure you enter the building through the main entrance, which is Stormstraat 2. You may go to the Info-desk in the main lobby (ground floor).
In the entrace hall there is an elevator (and stairs) which can take you to the 6th floor. The workshops takes place in the "Raadzaal" at the 6th floor.
By Train
When arriving by train take care to get off at Brussel Centraal / Bruxelles Central station.
Leave the building of Brussel Centraal / Bruxelles Central either through the main exit (in a street called Putterie) or through the main entrance (on the corner of Keizerinlaan / Boulevard de l’Impératrice and Putterie). You should descend the Keizerinlaan /Boulevard de l’Impératrice, thereby leaving the gothic spire of the city hall behind you on your left. Once you have reached the Cathedral of Saint-Michael on your right and the name of the street has changed to the Boulevard Berlaimont/ Berlaimontlaan, turn immediately to the left. This is the Stomstraat / Rue d’Assaut. The last building on your right is EHSAL.
