Description

Situated in the heart of Mons and named for its owner, local lawyer, book and coin collector, Léon Losseau, the Maison Losseau is an 18th-century house which was remodelled in the Art Nouveau style shortly before 1914. Each of its rooms is devoted to a flower - thistle, iris, orchid, magnolia, rose - which provides the theme for decorative motifs on different materials.

The house combines the latest technical processes of the time with very subtle artistic detail
