Essentials about Het Zinneke in brief
Peeing figures have a tradition in Brussels. The bronze figure of a dog urinating on a pole (“Het Zinneke” or also called “Zinneken Pis”), erected in 1998, is the logical continuation of the world-famous peeing male fountain figure Manneken Pis from 1619 and its female counterpart Jeanneke Pis from 1985. Het Zinneke is located not far from Manneken and Jeanneke Pis at the intersection of Rue des Chartreux and Rue du Vieux-Marché aux Grains. By the way, in Brussels dialect “Zinneke” means something like “mangy street dog”.
