Introduction: The bronze statue of a peeing child is a landmark in Brussels and is known as the “first citizen of Brussels”. The bronze statue is located at the corner of the downtown square, about half a meter high. It is a little boy with a light chest and peeing, and the image is realistic. Legend has it that the Spanish occupiers planned to use explosives to blow up the city when they left Brussels. Fortunately, the boy urinated at night and poured out the fuse to save the city. In order to commemorate the little hero, this image was carved. The statue was built in 1619. In 1747, Louis XV of France had clothed him for the sake of “excellent view”. The King’s House next to the square houses hundreds of costumes for peeing children from all over the country. It is worth seeing.
