A VENUE WITH A STORY

EVENTS, MEETINGS, CELEBRATIONS, WEDDINGS & MORE

Quartier Papier is a name rooted in history. This striking industrial building was once home to the Papeterie de Saventhem, a 19th-century paper mill that played a key role in the local economy, specializing in the production of newspaper paper.

During the interwar years, the paper industry began to decline, and the factory gradually fell into disuse. Yet this was far from the end of its story.

Decades later, the building was reimagined as a creative hub for Belgium’s national TV channels VIER and VIJFtv. For eleven years, the space pulsed with media production under SBS Belgium.

For the last decade and still going strong, Quartier Papier stands as a unique event venue where industrial heritage meets contemporary design — the perfect setting for events that aim to inspire and leave a lasting impression.

a venue with a story

Quartier Papier didn’t get its name by accident. This striking industrial building once thrived as Papeterie de Saventhem, a 19th-century paper mill that played a key role in the local economy, specializing in newspaper production at the height of the print era.

As the interwar years brought a decline in the paper industry, the factory slowly faded into disuse. But the building’s story didn’t end there.

Decades later, it was reborn as the creative hub for Belgium’s national TV channels VIER and VIJFtv. For eleven vibrant years, this space pulsed with media production under SBS Belgium.

Today, Quartier Papier begins its next chapter, as a one-of-a-kind venue where heritage meets modern design, perfect for events that want to make a lasting impression.
