The Conservatoire Royal de Bruxelles, situated in the centre of Brussels, is spread over two sites called ‘Régence’ and ‘Chêne’. During the works on the historic building (rue de la Régence), the offices (administration and management) will be located at 146 rue Royale - temporary ‘Royale’ site.
A major restoration project is planned for the historic building on rue de la Régence between 2024 and 2029.
Since 2007, the non-profit organisation Conservamus (www.conservamus.be) has been devoting its energies to supporting this project.

The Régence site is an historical building in the renaissance revival style, building between 1872 and 1876, at 30 rue de la Régence.
Comprising three sections, and inspired by the Lescot wing of the Louvre, the building is built around a main courtyard and is the work of Belgian architect Jean-Pierre Cluysenaar. The Régence site is home to the main administration of the Conservatoire as well as the library, data processing, several teaching rooms and two larger public halls used mainly for examinations and performance:

Rue du Chêne 17

The Chêne site houses most classes, the technical services, the social service, the sandwich shop, the common room, the media library and the Joseph Jongen auditorium. With a capacity of 98 spaces, this hall plays host to many public performances alongside masterclasses, colloquiums and conferences. This space is above all dedicated to creation; organised around a stage of 8x8 metres, the space is equipped (with rigging, grand piano, dance floor) to host performances of all kinds.
