The Manneken Pis statue in Brussels was dressed in Cypriot traditional attire to celebrate the 65th anniversary of Cyprus's Independence. The event was attended by the Cypriot Ambassador to the EU and many Cypriots. The outfit was donated by the Cypriot Embassy in 2010. The costume is displayed at the Manneken Pis museum alongside other national costumes from EU member states. This event highlighted the importance of integrating ethnicities into European cultural heritage.
