Élysette

The Élysette (, Little Élysée; Elizete) is the executive seat of the Government of Wallonia. It houses the office of the Minister-President of Wallonia, and is located in Namur, Namur province, Belgium.

History


Built in 1877 by master-tanner Xavier Thibault, it was bought by the Walloon Region to the city of Namur.

This building, hosting the office of the Minister-President, as well as his official residence, is on the right shore of the Meuse river, in Jambes, the administrative borough of Namur, capital of Wallonia. For the Minister-President's good services, you can find there kitchens, two bedrooms for the servants, garages, offices and meeting rooms (especially the Council of Ministers' Room).

A flat, consisting of a bedroom, a dining room, a bathroom and a living room is next to the Minister-President's Office.

The Élysette faces the Parliament of Wallonia. This one is on the left shore of the river, next to the Grognon (confluence between Meuse and Sambre rivers).
