THE BUILDING
Go there and contact
Belfry topped by a lantern, now home to the city's last bell and its three chimes.
In the 17th century, when the belfry was built, the Italian Renaissance made its mark throughout Europe. With its emphasis on horizontality, the Renaissance was by definition opposed to the grandiose verticality of northern belfries. This explains why this belfry is "only" 27 metres high! The belfry was subsequently rebuilt in the 19th century. It contains two bells, which are still rung every quarter-hour, and was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2005. It is only accessible on certain days.
