Definitely in the Hallepoort (Porte de Hal in French) now, which has been since a year and a half one of the Royal museums of Art and History of Brussels. Originally from the Abbey of Villers in Villers-la-Ville, Walloon Brabant. Knight Raes de Greis was standardbearer of duke John (Jan) I of Brabant (+1294).
