The Human Rights Monument (French: Monument aux Droits de l'Homme; Dutch: Monument voor de Mensenrechten) is a monument in Tour & Taxis Park, in the City of Brussels, Belgium, commemorating the 70th anniversary of the signing of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). Inaugurated on 10 December 2018, it was designed by the landscape architect Bas Smets and commissioned by the former Brussels Minister of the Environment and Energy, Céline Fremault. The monument was created to provide a dedicated space for reflection on human rights, addressing the lack of such a space in Brussels. While human rights texts have been displayed in other public areas, such as Parvis de Saint-Gilles/Sint-Gillisvoorplein premetro station, this monument offers a space for deeper contemplation. The design was inspired by Memorial 22/03, a land-art work by Smets honouring victims of the 2016 Brussels bombings, and it aims to serve as a physical representation of human rights. The 12-metre-high (39 ft) obelisk features thirty coloured stone blocks, each inscribed with an article of the UDHR in French, Dutch, German, and English. The colours range from dark at the bottom to light at the top, symbolising the diversity of human rights and cultures. Surrounded by a circle of Scots pines, the monument invites reflection on the values of equality and dignity. The design was developed through consultations with human rights groups, political parties, and architects, emphasising the importance of collaboration and interdisciplinary dialogue. The monument encourages visitors to engage with the principles of human rights and consider their relevance today. Financed by Brussels Environment with a budget of €140,000, the monument was completed in time for Human Rights Day (HRD) in 2018.

The museum is located at 135, rue Esseghem/Esseghemstraat, in the house where Magritte lived and worked for 24 years, between 1930 and 1954.The ground floor of the house there is an apartment where Magritte and his wife Georgette lived, whereas the first and the second floors display the biographical exposition.Magritte and his wife moved in 1954 to a bigger apartment in Schaerbeek, which, as they thought, was in better agreement with their social status. The testament of Magritte's wife, however, indicated that the house in Jette is the most important for the biography of Magritte. In 1993, André Garitte, an art collector and a fan of Belgian surrealism, bought the house, restored it, and in 1998, celebrating 100 years of Magritte, the museum was open to the public.

The Maritime Quarter (French: Quartier Maritime; Dutch: Maritiemwijk) is a quarter of Brussels, Belgium. Located in the north of the municipality of Molenbeek-Saint-Jean, with a piece extending into the City of Brussels, it lies adjacent to the Brussels Canal and forms part of the broader Canal Zone (French: Zone Canal; Dutch: Kanaalzone), an area that has long served as a logistical and economic artery for the city. The Maritime Quarter developed in the early 20th century as a hub for port-related industries, warehousing, and working-class housing. Over time, the area experienced industrial decline, followed by periods of urban decay. However, in recent decades, it has become the focus of revitalisation programmes. Nowadays, it is home to a diverse population and is characterised by a mix of industrial heritage and modern development. The district is crossed by the Boulevard Léopold II/Leopold II-laan running east–west, and is bounded to the east by the canal, to the north by Tour & Taxis, to the west by the railway line and to the south by the historical centre of Molenbeek. It is served by the metro station Ribaucourt on lines 2 and 6.
