The fire at the Palais des Beaux-Arts – Bozar – in Brussels on Monday night has caused more damage than first thought, according to the city’s Building Authority.
The fire was initially thought to have just damaged a section of the roof but further investigation in the wake of the blaze has shown that the Henry Le Boeuf concert hall and the organ housed there have also suffered. Inside the building, the Henry Le Boeuf room and its balconies are damaged, as is the organ,” a spokesperson for the Building Authority said. “Elsewhere, the ceiling has broken down in several exhibition spaces. But the glass roofs have generally held up well.
