The Story
Meet Manneken Pis, or as he sometimes likes to be called, Petit Julien. In addition to being a famous Brussels landmark, this little fellow also happens to be the East House Creative mascot.
Legend has it that sometime during the 14th century, Brussels came under siege by a foreign power. Fighting valiantly, the city held its ground for days on end. At one point, the attackers began placing explosives around the city walls. Fortunately, a small boy named Juliaanske happened to overhear their plans. Springing into action, he urinated on the burning fuse, thus saving the city.
