Head to Louvain-la-Neuve, 27km (17 miles) southeast of Brussels, to visit the Musée Hergé, which celebrates the work of Tintin creator Georges Remi (1907–83), known to all as Hergé. The building itself is part of the attraction—a minimalist and boxlike gleaming, white affair with a massive image of Tintin emblazoned on one facade. It was designed by the French architect Christian de Portzamparc, and exhibits more than 800 original drawings of Tintin.
