The territory of Woluwe-Saint-Pierre is traversed by two main roads: Avenue de Tervueren, built for the 1897 universal exposition, which connects the centre of the city with the Forêt de Soignes, and Boulevard de la Woluwe, which runs parallel to the stream that gives its name to the commune. Woluwe-Saint-Pierre has managed to retain its harmonious layout and there are a lot of architectural treasures waiting to be explored around Avenue de Tervueren. Starting with the first-rate Stoclet palace, for which Joseph Hoffmann drew the plans in 1905.
