"The Maison des Ducs de Brabant is one of the larger structures along the Grand-Place. It is, in fact, no larger than the other houses, as it is composed of seven separate houses with a single unified façade. It was built in 1770 and is not called the House of the Dukes of Brabant because this is where they lived. Actually, it is called as such because the house is adorned with the busts of the 19 different dukes along its façade."
