The place, Louis XV Pavilion. In 1909, Baron Léon Janssen, director of Société Générale de Belgique, discovered in Amsterdam the ruins of a magnificent pavilion in the garden of a wealthy Portuguese merchant. He bought it and brought it up, stone by stone, in his garden, which was then the Parc du Wolvendael. Concerned that the park would not be divided up upon his death, he sold it in 1920 to the municipality of Uccle who made it the superb public park that it is today,
