At the corner of Avenue Reine Astrid and Rue du Fourneau, the building was constructed at the beginning of the 20th century to the plans of the architect Marcel HANSEN, who also signed the plans of numerous Spadois villas. The building is eclectic in style and has some Art Nouveau architectural elements. On the Avenue Reine Astrid side, two sgraffito panels decorate the façade with floral decorations. Two windows with horseshoe arches, one on the avenue side and the other on the park side, are also representative of the Art Nouveau movement. Art Nouveau was increasingly inspired by other styles, such as Moorish or Arab, whose exoticism adds to its originality. There is another Art Nouveau gem on the Avenue Reine Astrid, but this villa is further away (about 1 km from the centre of Spa, on the left-hand side of the avenue, towards Theux). We advise you to go there by car.
