Description

I 1908 fik den runde plads ved krydset mellem Kasteelstraat og Leopold de Waelstraat et eget navn, opkaldt efter den da for nylig afdøde baron F.A. Lambermont (1819-1905). Han var generalsekretær for Udenrigsministeriet, en stilling hvori han i 1863 kunne købe den tunge Schelde-told fri fra Nederlandene. Denne historiske begivenhed er et ofte tilbagevendende tema i Zuid, oversat til talrige gadenavne og et antal store monumenter. For statuen til ære for Lambermont blev der i 1910 udskrevet en designkonkurrence af Fédération des Associations Commerciales et Industrielles de Belgique. Designene blev udstillet i Brüssels Jubelpark. Det eklektiske, neobarokke design af billedhugger Léandre Grandmoulin og arkitekt F. Van Holder blev realiseret. Den 14. august 1912 blev et monumentalt kunstværk afsløret på Lambermontpladsen i nærværelse af kong Albert og dronning Elisabeth til ære for Lambermont. I symbolikken af kunstværket spiller Schelde og frigivelsen af tolden en vigtig rolle.
