Atomium - Square de l'Atomium 1020
Held at the dawn of the “Golden Sixties”, Expo 58 was the first international event to take place following the Second World War. A celebration of peace regained, humanism and modernity, Expo 58 caught the public imagination and has held a place in the collective memory of the Belgian people ever since.
Three exhibitions, organised by ATOMIUM-EXPO, take place especially to celebrate this 60th birthday within our walls: Podium 58, Graphic 58 and People of 58!
People of 58 forms an extension to the Atomium’s permanent exhibition. It will focus particularly on the people involved in Expo 58, using a large number of documents, videos, photographs and costumes, most of which have never before been seen. It will immerse visitors in the ambience, environment and experience of those times.
