Manneken-Pis pays tribute to hospitals staff

The City of Brussels, in collaboration with "Les Héros d'Iris", offered a new costume to Manneken-Pis on Saturday 5 September. The famous ketje donned a costume representing the various hospital professions: nurses, cleaners, nursing assistants, doctors, administrative staff, technicians and all the people who support the activities of a hospital. With this gesture, the City intends to pay tribute to the staff of the public hospitals of the Iris network (CHU Saint-Pierre, CHU Brugmann, Institut Jules Bordet, Children's Hospital and Iris-Sud Hospitals) who were particularly mobilised during this coronavirus crisis.
