Abstract
In this essay, the history of the Brussels architecture school La Cambre is sketched. It was established in 1928 under the guidance of Henry Van de Velde as an avant-garde elite school, but in the 1960s a certain academism emerged. This led to almost two decades of ideological and political battles, with Maurice Culot, Léon Krier and Robert Delevoy as the main protagonists. In 2011, La Cambre was integrated into the University of Brussels.
