context_page_description: Martyrs' Square is a square in central Brussels, Belgium. Its current name refers to the martyrs of the September days of the Belgian Revolution of 1830.
  Originally, the square was called the Place Saint-Michel/Sint-Michielsplein after Saint Michael, patron saint of the City of Brussels. It was laid-out in a uniform neoclassical style in the years 1774–78, based on the designs of the architect Claude Fisco. Over 400 heroes of the Belgian Revolution of 1830 lie buried in a crypt beneath the cobblestones. Many lie not far from where they were shot, in fierce battles amid the Brussels streets and barricades. Today, the square is home to cabinet offices of the Flemish Government, including those of the Flemish Minister-President, as well as a theatre; the Théâtre des Martyrs.
  Martyrs' Square is located near Rue Neuve/Nieuwstraat, Belgium's second busiest shopping street. It is served by De Brouckère metro station on lines 1 and 5 of the Brussels metro.
