Title: Brussels Anniversary of Scientology Notes 51 Years in Belgium and Social Betterment Efforts

BRUSSELS, Belgium — 5 February 2026 — The Churches of Scientology for Europe in Brussels is marking 16 years since the dedication of its Boulevard de Waterloo headquarters, while noting that Scientology’s presence in Belgium now spans more than five decades. The anniversary follows renewed attention generated by the Destination: Scientology episode on Brussels and a related feature published by Freedom Magazine, which frames the building as a local landmark and revisits the long legal proceedings that ended with the dismissal of all charges against the Belgian Church and affiliated defendants.The Brussels site—dedicated on 23 January 2010—occupies an early 20th-century building on Boulevard de Waterloo 100–103 and is described as an 88,000-square-foot facility serving both local parishioners and visitors from across Europe. The premises include a chapel for congregational gatherings and ceremonies, rooms for religious training and pastoral counselling, and a public information space presenting Scientology beliefs and practices and the life and works of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, alongside information on Church-supported social betterment programmes.While the Brussels headquarters dates to 2010, Belgium’s national timeline extends further back. Public registry information lists the Église de Scientologie de Belgique (ASBL) as founded in 1974—placing Scientology’s organised presence in the country at more than 51 years. Church representatives say the Brussels building has become a focal point for activity in a city where diverse communities and European institutions share the same streets, and where questions of pluralism and freedom of religion or belief are regularly debated in civic and policy settings.Scientology Network Brussels episode of Destination: Scien...
