Madou Plaza Tower
Madou Plaza Tower
The Madou Plaza Tower is a high-rise building located in the Saint-Josse-ten-Noode district of Brussels. Completed in 1965, the structure currently serves as office space for the European Commission. Visitors typically visit the area to observe the city's mid-century architectural landmarks or as part of a tour of the European Quarter.
Getting There
The tower is accessible from the Brussels city centre via public transport or a short taxi ride. Using the metro or bus, the journey generally takes between 10 and 20 minutes depending on the starting point and traffic conditions.
Time Requirement
Since the building primarily functions as an administrative office complex, most travellers spend approximately 30 to 60 minutes viewing the exterior and the surrounding plaza.
When to Visit
The area is most active during weekday business hours due to the presence of European Commission offices. To avoid the heaviest commuter crowds, consider visiting during the midday lull or on weekends when the surrounding streets are quieter.

The tower is situated within walking distance of several other points of interest. You can combine your visit with the following:
- Astro Tower (0.2km)
- Brussels Park (0.7km)
- Cathedral of St. Michael and St. Gudula (0.7km)
