    I wonder if I would want to live in a building like this. No, I wouldn't want to live in that type of building for sure, but I mean decorated that way. Would you like to live under the watchful eye of a historical figure? Behind his back, so to speak.

    I would say that historical figures have their special places - in textbooks, books, museums, pedestals, if you will. But not human buildings. Human noisy hives, with all their joys and sorrows.
    Historical figures are far above this level, they have gone through all this to remain in history, so they have overcome a lot. And they need quiet, don't you think? They need places of worship, respect and... silence. I believe that history, personalities, great deeds, should not be mixed with boring everyday life, in which there is nothing heroic.

    Hive.jpgSoul's Detour is a project started by me years ago when I had a blog about historical and not so popular tourist destinations in Eastern Belgium, West Germany and Luxembourg. Nowadays, this blog no longer exists, but I'm still here - passionate about architecture, art and mysteries and eager to share my discoveries and point of view with you.
