GRAND-PLACE

On the corner of the square and Kapelstraat, the pharmacy in a Renaissance house: 't Sweert has been open since 1713! The year 1659, which is engraved on the façade, bears witness to an earlier partial renovation, the building dating from the 15th century. Its corbelled floor is a small jewel of chequered half-timbering with squares filled with diagonals. The town hall is housed in an old classical patrician house from the 17th century. It does not, however, have the splendour and pomp of many other town halls in the country.
