Neder-Over-Heembeek (French: [nedœʁ ovœʁ embek]; Dutch: [ˈneːdər oːvər ˈɦeːmbeːk] ) is a former municipality of Brussels, Belgium, that was merged into the City of Brussels in 1921. Nowadays, it is a northern section of that municipality, and a predominantly industrial zone, especially known for the Queen Astrid Military Hospital, which is the National Burns and Poisons Centre.
