Louvain-la-Neuve is the youngest city in Belgium to have emerged from the ground, and it is also a student city. Indeed, this city was imagined in 1968 and created in 1972, following the linguistic separation of the Catholic University of Louvain (Leuven, in the current Flemish Brabant). The city centre is pedestrianised, socially mixed, and the human dimension has been preserved, avoiding excessive avenues and high buildings. The city aims to be accessible, sustainable and oriented towards collective management. Louvain-la-Neuve has been home to the Hergé Museum for ten years. To taste: the Vî Paurin pie, typical of the neighbouring municipality of Rixensart.
