Cogels-Osylei in Zurenborg te Antwerpen: Architectuur, design en kunst uit de belle époque
Zurenborg - Antwerp Belgium's Art Nouveau Neighbourhood. The most famous street in the district of Zurenborg in southern Antwerp, Cogels-Osylei developed as a home of the wealthy between 1894 en 1906. Local architects designed mansions using a vaste range of styles: Art Nouveau, the revival styles as Gothic Revival, Neo-Renaissance, Greek Revival, Neoclassical, and the cottage style that coincided with British Tudorbethan architecture. With mosaics, statues, turrets and ironwork, the houses can be palatial, artistic or splendidly flamboyant. The most striking characteristic is the extraordinary individuality expressed in such a concentrated area.
De Cogels-Osylei is de meest prestigieuze woonstraat van de residentiële wijk Zurenborg gelegen in de Belgische plaats Antwerpen, Berchem. Tientallen kapitale burgerhuizen worden tentoongesteld die stuk voor stuk zijn opgetrokken tijdens de eeuwwisseling van de 19de met de 20ste eeuw in een typische belle époque. Hun fraaie gevels rijgen er aaneen in een bizarre vermenging van jugendstil, art nouveau, eclectische stijl en neoclassicisme. Harmonieus en scherp karakter, complex, brutaal, gedurfd en toch exquise. In deze video maak je kennis met enkele opmerkelijke gebouwen, bijzonder en uniek.

Zurenborg - Le quartier Art Nouveau d'Anvers en Belgique. La rue la plus célèbre du quartier de Zurenborg au sud d'Anvers, Cogels-Osylei s'est développée entre 1894 et 1906 pour devenir la maison des riches. Les architectes locaux ont conçu des hôtels particuliers en utilisant un large éventail de styles : L'Art Nouveau, les styles de renaissance comme le néo-gothique, le néo-renaissance, le néo-grec, le néoclassique et le style cottage qui coïncide avec l'architecture britannique du Tudorbethan. Avec ses mosaïques, ses statues, ses tourelles et ses ferronneries, les maisons peuvent être palatiales, artistiques ou splendidement flamboyantes. La caractéristique la plus frappante est l'extraordinaire individualité exprimée dans une zone aussi concentrée.

Art nouveau in Antwerp-Belgium by Tiny Esveld
Read more here: Belgium is not only famous for its beer, but also for Victor Horta and Henry van de Velde and many other art nouveau artists. In Antwerp there's a part of town where you can find more then one hundred art nouveau houses in just a few streets. The main street is named the Cogels-Osy lei in the district Berchem. All the houses are from the belle-epoque, built between 1881 and 1914. It is a pleasure to see the mosaic tiles in the façades à la Mucha or the balconies in iron with the fluid jugendstil lines. You can spend several hours in these streets and then you haven't seen it all. A great idea for a citytrip.

Antwerpen Day 4
Day 4 in Antwerp.
Today we wade the 40 minute walk to the beautiful Cogels-osylei Street. The day before a local stopped us at the bakery and suggested we take a visit, so we did. It was quite an impressive street. We then walked back to the Airbnb for a brake before checking out. The afternoon saw us shopping and eating before heading home to Germany.
