Elisabeth Christens Belgica II

25 June 2022

Crown Princess Elisabeth has accepted to become the godmother of Belgium's new Antarctic research vessel "Belgica II". She officially christened the ship in Ghent. This was Elisabeth's very first solo activity!

The baptism of the new vessel was supposed to take place in 2020 but got postponed because of the COVID pandemic.





It was Elisabeth's second time to christen a ship. In 2015, at the age of thirteen, she christened the Pollux: as you can see here . At the time she was of course accompanied by her parents.



When the Crown Princess arrived at 16:20 it started raining.












After the christening Elisabeth was given a tour of the ship.











For this special event, Crown Princess Elisabeth wore a Reiss dress, a Fabienne Delvigne hat and purse and her mother's Percossi Papi earrings.
