Overview
Our peculiar tour will begin next to the majestic Cathedral of Saint Bavo and, from there, we will go to the back of the Cathedral, in order to enjoy it from another point of view, but also to see one of the most important sculptures in the city: the statue dedicated to the Van Eyck brothers. Creators of the world-renowned as one of the most influential works of art, the polyptych of the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb.
From here we will go to the Castle of Gerardo el Diablo, a Gothic castle from the 13th century. We will arrive through narrow streets to the peculiar and divided City Hall and we will quickly enter a dynamic painting of street art expression: the street of graffiti. Our path will take us to the Church of Santiago and, in just an instant, we will be surprised by Baudelo Abbey. This chapel has had many uses since its origin, from a religious sanctuary to a food market to, at present, an exclusive space for different events. After this, we will go to the Friday Square, where the weekly market is still held, and we will discover a peculiar bar. We will end up next to a pier and the ¨Manneken Pis¨ gantes.
