The story

In 1968, the Catholic University of Louvain acquired some land in the east of Brussels, which did not have a large hospital at that time. When the university split in two, the French-speaking departments moved from Leuven to Ottignies to found the new city of Louvain-la-Neuve, except for the medical faculty and health sciences sector, which moved to a newly built Brussels campus, now called UCLouvain Brussels Woluwe.

It is one of the two main university hospitals of the University of Louvain (UCLouvain), the other being the CHU UCLouvain Namur, in Namur Province (Wallonia).
