Woluwe-Saint-Lambert ((:wolywe sɛ̃ lɑ̃bɛːʁ)) or Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe (Dutch, ) is one of the nineteen municipalities located in the Brussels-Capital Region of Belgium. It is a prosperous residential area, with a mixture of flats and detached, semi-detached and terraced houses, often compared with Uccle (''Ukkel'' in Dutch), another affluent Brussels municipality, and the 14th or 17th arrondissement in Paris. In French it is often spelt ''Woluwé-Saint-Lambert'' with an acute accent on the first 'e' to reflect the Frenchified pronunciation of what was originally a Dutch place name, but the official spelling is without an accent. The neighbouring municipality of Woluwe-Saint-Pierre also lies within the Brussels-Capital Region, while the former municipality of Sint-Stevens-Woluwe (Woluwe-Saint-Etienne in French) has been merged with three other municipalities (Zaventem, Nossegem and Sterrebeek) to form the municipality of Zaventem, which is in the province of Flemish Brabant in Flanders. ==Geography== Woluwe hosts the medical faculty of the Université catholique de Louvain and its hospital, the Cliniques Universitaires Saint-Luc, and several shopping areas, notably the Avenue Georges Henri (Georges Henrilaan) and the Woluwe Shopping Centre. Some of the municipality's major roads are named after prominent 20th-century Belgian statesmen, such as the prestigious Avenue de Broqueville/de Broquevillelaan and Avenue Paul Hymans/Paul Hymanslaan. Line 1 (formerly line 1B) of the Brussels metro runs under these roads. The Woluwe River flows through the municipality. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Woluwe-Saint-Lambert」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
