[[File:Palais aca bxl 01.JPG|thumb|The [[Academy Palace|Palace of Academies]] in [[Brussels]] which today houses five academies]]
In [[Belgium]], [[academy|academies]] are publicly funded [[Learned society|learned societies]], often divided by academic discipline or [[Languages of Belgium|linguistic group]]. Besides holding meetings, many publish academic monographs, [[peer-reviewed journal]]s and hold conferences. Membership is usually by election and non-Belgians are usually admitted only as [[corresponding member]]s. Originating during the [[Enlightenment]], the concept can be traced to the [[Imperial and Royal Academy of Brussels]] which was the first academy in Belgium, founded in 1772 by the Empress [[Maria Theresa]] when the country was [[Austrian Netherlands|under Austrian rule]].
The principle academies in Belgium are interdisciplinary but divided linguistically. Both trace their origins to the original academy of 1772 and are based in the [[Academy Palace|Palace of Academies]] in [[Brussels]], which also houses three others. They are:
* [[Académie royale des sciences, des lettres et des beaux-arts de Belgique]] (known as the "Theresean Academy")
* [[Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Science and the Arts]] (KVAB, which became independent in 1938)
Collectively, the two academies frequently collaborate under the [[umbrella organisation]] of the [[Royal Academies for Science and the Arts of Belgium]], founded in 2001.
There are two literary academies, also divided linguistically:
* [[Académie royale de langue et de littérature françaises de Belgique|Royal Academy of French Language and Literature of Belgium]] (ARLLFB, founded 1920)
* [[Royal Academy of Dutch Language and Literature|Royal Academy of Dutch Language and Literature of Belgium]] (KANTL, founded 1886)
There are two academies of medicine, divided lingustically and with the same names:
*[[Académie royale de médecine de Belgique]] (ARMB, founded 1841)
*[[Koninklijke Academie voor Geneeskunde van België]] (KAGB, founded 1938)
Other subject-specific bilingual academies exist:
*[[Royal Academy of Archaeology of Belgium]] (founded 1842)
*[[Royal Academy for Overseas Sciences]] (founded 1928)
