• Belfry and Cloth Hall (Belfort en Lakenhalle) - Ghent’s Belfry symbolizes the city’s prosperity and autonomy. The Cloth Hall, located opposite the Belfry, was completed in 1907. Its stunning Brabant Gothic architecture pays tribute to the industries that have greatly contributed to Ghent’s success. An old guard house is situated at the corner of the Cloth Hall. Every Sunday morning from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m., the city carillonneur performs. On Saturday evenings in July and August, except during the Gentse Feesten, you can enjoy live carillon concerts featuring various guest artists and music from around the world.
• Monument Jan Frans Willems - This monument honors Jan-Frans Willems, regarded as the founder of the Flemish Movement. Born into a poor bourgeois family in the 18th century, Willems saw his father mistreated by French-speaking Belgians who took some of his jobs because he didn’t speak French. This experience motivated him to champion Flemish culture while remaining deeply committed to Dutch culture. The sculptures on this memorial strike patriotic poses and exude pride.
• St. Bavo’s Cathedral (Sint-Baafskathedraal) - Saint Bavo’s Cathedral (Dutch: Sint Baafskathedraal) is a Catholic cathedral in Ghent, Belgium. The 89-meter-tall Gothic building, dedicated to Saint Bavo of Ghent, serves as the seat of the Diocese of Ghent. It is home to the famous Ghent Altarpiece.
• The Van Eyck brothers statue - This impressive monument was created to honor the artists for the 1913 World Expo in Ghent. Men, women, and children bring flowers, wreaths, and garlands. Hubert, the elder brother, reads the Bible with his palette and brushes at his feet, while his brother Jan stands upright, holding his palette.
• Geeraard de Duivelsteen - The Geeraard de Duivelsteen (“Devil Castle”) is a 13th-century Gothic castle in Ghent, Belgium. It was built to protect the city’s harbor, Portus Ganda. The castle is named after the knight Geeraard Vilain (1210-1270), the second son of the fifteenth Viscount of Ghent, Zeger III of Ghent. Vilain was nicknamed “Geeraard de Duivel” (“Geerard the Devil”) because of his dark skin and hair. (Outside Visit)
