The Parliament of Wallonia (French: Parlement de Wallonie, pronounced [paʁləmɑ̃ də walɔni]), or the Walloon Parliament (Parlement wallon, [paʁləmɑ̃ walɔ̃]) in the decrees, is the legislative body of Wallonia, one of the three self-governing regions of Belgium (the other two being Flanders and the Brussels-Capital Region). The parliament building, the former Hospice Saint-Gilles, is situated in Namur, the capital of Wallonia, at the symbolic confluence of the Meuse and the Sambre, the two main rivers of the most inhabited parts of Wallonia, the Sillon industriel. On the other side of the Meuse, facing the Parliament, is the Élysette, the seat of the Government of Wallonia.
