The Pavilion of Human Passions (French: Pavillon des Passions humaines; Dutch: Paviljoen der Menselijke Driften), also known as the Horta-Lambeaux Pavilion, is a neoclassical pavilion in the form of a Greek temple that was built by Victor Horta in 1896 in the Parc du Cinquantenaire/Jubelpark of Brussels, Belgium. Although classical in appearance, the building shows the first steps of the young Victor Horta towards Art Nouveau. It was designed to serve as a permanent showcase for a large marble relief The Human Passions by Jef Lambeaux.

Since its completion, the building has remained almost permanently closed. Since 2014, the building is accessible during the summer time.[2]
