Description

Did you know that the center of Walloon Brabant has been the breeding ground for many comics and the place of residence of famous cartoonists? Tintin, Le Chat, Cubitus and Yoko Tsuno are some of these characters who grew up on these lands. Meet the great comic book authors of Walloon Brabant and their well-known heroes. First compulsory passage: Céroux-Mousty. This beautiful Brabant village welcomed Hergé for several decades. You will then go to Limal where Dupa, father of Cubitus lived and to Wavre, the city of Roger Leloup, the author of Yoko Tsuno, whose fresco adorns one of the walls of the city center. Louvain-la-Neuve will be the last big stage of this route. Stop there to visit the Hergé Museum and admire the many frescoes dedicated to comics, spread throughout the city. You may be lucky enough to meet Gaston, Violette, Largo Winch and others.
