Brussels has grown from what was once a 10th-century fortress town into a significant city. Its significance in international politics sets it apart from other capital cities in Europe, and it has become the home of numerous international organizations, politicians, diplomats and civil servants. Brussels boasts diverse architecture, spanning medieval constructions such as the Grand Palace to postmodern buildings such as those housing the EU institutions. Other attractions include the Gothic town hall, the St. Michael and Gudula Cathedral, the Royal Palace of Brussels, and the Royal Palace of Laeken.
