It was built between 1866 and 1883 in the eclectic style by architect Joseph Poelart.

Private Law Paradigm of European Integration (11376 words)
In the legal culture of Europe, private law is perceived and may actually function as a bulwark against the flood of European regulation, a sort of antidote to the dilution of regional identities.
Courts must therefore assess, preliminarily, whether the legislative intent underlying a given provision is the protection of the general interest alone, or the protection of an individual interest from violation of the prescribed norm.
Brussels appears to view private law as essentially no different from any other item in its purview, of such little impact on the fundamental value-choices of Europe's constituent nations that it may safely be entrusted to faceless technocrats.
