Activity itinerary

St Michael's Bridge
  • 20m
We start here with an introduction to the history of Ghent and the role the city played as a trading hub in medieval times. We also introduce you to the 3 towers of the Ghent skyline, which are best visible from this spot.
Graslei and Korenlei
  • 20m
At the Graslei, the beating heart of the historical city centre, we show you which buildings were involved in the trading activities when this area functioned as the city’s port.
Het Groot Vleeshuis
  • 20m
With a view of the medieval covered Great Butchers’ Hall across the water, we tell you some darker facts about this majestic building.
Gravensteen
  • 20m
Unlike most castles, the medieval Castle of the Counts is located right the middle of the city and and is very well preserved. We will tell you all about its impressive past!
St. Veerleplein
  • 20m
The square in front of the castle is both known as the square of death as well as the square of life. You’ll find out why!
Het Huis van Alijn - The House of Alijn
  • 20m
The House of Alijn was a hospital and is the only remaining ‘god house’ in Ghent. We will tell you the unfortunate story of how it became a hospital.
Vrijdagmarkt
  • 30m
This illustrious square has played a prominent role in Ghent’s history, as well as the man whose statue is located in the middle. Our guide will share its fascinating history with you!
Werregarenstraat
  • 20m
As a way to keep our monumental buildings from being sprayed by graffiti, the city has designated a specific area for street artists to go wild. We’ll walk you through it!
Ghent Town Hall (Stadhuis)
  • 20m
To understand why our city hall looks a little bit ‘confused’, our guide will explain the most significant conflict in the history of Ghent.
St. Bavo's Cathedral (Sint-Baafskathedraal)
  • 30m
Our cathedral has a rich history and houses many art treasures, most notably the world-famous Ghent Altarpiece by the brothers Van Eyck. We’ll share some of this history with you.
Belfry and Cloth Hall (Belfort en Lakenhalle)
  • 20m
The Belfry is the people’s tower and reflects the stubbornness, power and independence of the city. As the former prison, its façade also tells the story of a bizarre legend that our guide will share with you.
Saint Nicholas Church
  • 30m
This gem from the early 12th century looks out over Korenmarkt and has St Nicholas, the protector of merchants and sailors, as its patron saint. The façade of this building shows us the legend of its patron saint: the perfect way to end this legendary tour!
