Historical heart : 2-hour walking tour / from 90€

Starting off from the Grand-Place (the main square) and its 21st century integrations, discover the

interior of the City Hall (subject to accessibility) and its centuries-old rooms. Then walk across the

Mayor’s Garden, walk down a few old streets and get close to the city’s baroque Belfry and its park on

the site where the castle of the Counts of Hainaut used to stand proudly. Then enter Saint Waudru Collegiate Church (subject to accessibility) and discover an incredible patrimony : stained-glass windows from the 16th century, the sculptures of Jacques Du Broeucq, St-Waudru’s reliquaries, the architecture of the church… a 2-hour peak into the city’s history and evolution from its origins to today.

You can also visit the Treasury of Sainte-Waudru (+€3 per person), the “Artothèque” (art library), (+€4

per person, + €45 per guide) or the Belfry (+€6 per person, without a guide).
