History
 The communications tower at RTBF's headquarters in Brussels. Originally named INR (Institut national de radiodiffusion), the state-controlled broadcaster was established by law on June 18, 1930. On June 14, 1940 the INR was forced to cease broadcasting as a result of the German invasion. The German occupying forces, who now oversaw its management, changed the INR's name to Radio Bruxelles. Personnel from the former INR (now called Radio Belgique/Radio Belgie) relocated to BBC studios in London. The Belgian government-in-exile established the Office de Radiodiffusion Nationale Belge (RNB) in June 1940, which was overseen by the Belgian Ministry of Information.

At the end of the War the INR and the RNB coexisted until September 14, 1945 and a Royal Decree restored the INR's original mission. In 1953, broadcasting from the heart of Brussels, Belgian television inaugurated broadcasts for two hours a day. The INR was subsumed into RTB (Radio-Télévision Belge) in 1960 and moved to new quarters at the Reyers building in 1967. The RTB's first broadcast in colour (Le Jardin Extraordinaire), a gardening and nature programme, was broadcast in 1971. Two years later the RTB went on air with its first News programme in colour.
In 1977 the RTB was subsumed into the RTBF (Radio-Télévison Belge de la Communauté française) and a second TV channel was set up with the name RTbis. In 1979 RTbis became "Télé 2". Along with French channels TF1, Antenne 2, FR 3 and SSR, RTBF jointly established the European French-speaking channel TV5 in 1984. On March 21, 1988 Télé 2 became Télé 21. On September 27, 1989 a subsidiary company of RTBF was set up with the name Canal Plus TVCF, which subsequently became "Canal Plus Belgique" in May 1995. In 1993 Télé 21 was replaced by Arte/21 and Sport 21. TF1 is a private French TV network, controlled by TF1 Group, whose major share-holder is Bouygues. ...
