The Comic Strip Trail: one of Brussels’ most original attractions

Brussels is full of famous landmarks, but the Comic Strip Trail offers a different way to discover the city. As the world capital of comic strips, Brussels brings the ninth art into everyday life through a remarkable collection of murals spread across its streets.

Since 1991, more than 80 frescoes have appeared on walls throughout the city, paying tribute to iconic comic book authors and characters. While exploring Brussels, you may suddenly find Tintin, Billy and Buddy, Cubitus, Corto Maltese, Blake and Mortimer and many others towering above you on building façades.

During your stay at The Scott Hotel, the Comic Strip Trail is a wonderful way to experience Brussels through culture, design and visual storytelling. It adds an artistic and unexpected dimension to your city trip, while revealing one of the Belgian capital’s most distinctive traditions.
