Church with a beautiful Renaissance façade decorated with an allegorical fresco illustrating trade and industry

The public scale is located in an old gothic chapel dating from 1341, rebuilt and transformed in the 16th century, and whose high crossing tower houses a carillon with automatons from the late 17th century. Every hour, figurines emerge from it and compete (mechanically) in a chivalrous tournament. On market days, at 11 am, a carillon concert signals the end of the transactions. The east wing of the church (on the canal) has a beautiful Renaissance façade decorated with an allegorical fresco illustrating commerce and industry.
