Immediately Brussels downtown part of north-east of the Grand Place are the Royal Galleries of Saint-Hubert (Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert in French ; Koninklijke Sint-Hubertusgalerijen in Dutch), inspired by the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.

The King House (Broodhuis in Dutch, Maison du Roi in French) was originally a bakery in the 13th century, and was replaced by the present stone building in Brussels downtown in the 15th c . as an administrative building for the duke of Brabant as you can see in Brussels downtown map. It was restored in neo-gothic style in the 18th century. It is somewhat of a misnomer as no kings ever lived there.
