Royal Glasshouses in Laeken Open to Raise Money For Queen’s Fund

The beautiful royal glasshouses of Laeken Palace, Brussels will be opened from April 15th to May 6th. A visit will cost 2,50 Euros. The proceeds will go to the Queen’s Fund, a foundation that helps Belgian families in need. Queen Fabiola left her entire estate to this fund, as became clear last month.

The glasshouses were built by king Leopold II and store a remarkable collection of exotic plants and flowers. The location is often used by the royal family during state visits. But also the wedding party of Philippe and Mathilde was held in the greenhouses.
