In 1909, a man named Philippe Werrie took the reins as mayor of Jette. Here at Place Philippe Werrie, named in his honor, we trace the legacy of this influential figure. He served the community diligently until his death in 1926. Place Philippe Werrie isn’t just a square. It’s a testament to Werrie’s dedication. A nearby street, Rue Henri Werrie, adds another layer to the story. But be careful not to confuse the two. While both honor members of the Werrie family, Place Philippe Werrie specifically commemorates the mayor. Philippe Werrie, the man, left an indelible mark on Jette. Now, Place Philippe Werrie, the square, continues to carry his name and his story forward.
