Om
Hurtige fakta: Den 91 meter høje bygning tjente engang som udkigstårn til at vogte mod brande og fjendtlige angreb. Den ikoniske dragevejrhanen på toppen har vogtet byen i over 600 år.
Højdepunkter: Bestig den smalle spiraltrappe med 400 trin for en betagende panoramaudsigt over Gents middelalderlige tage og snoede kanaler. Hør klokkespillets klokker kime med melodier, der har markeret tiden i over fem århundreder og fortæller århundredgamle historier.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes since the stairs are steep and narrow.
- Capture the best photos from the first balcony before reaching the top for less crowded views.
- Avoid weekends when tour groups typically arrive in force.
- Listen for the hourly bell chimes, a magical experience often missed by brief visitors.
