The Belfry of Ghent, a UNESCO World Heritage site, stands proudly in the heart of Ghent, Belgium. This medieval structure dates back to the 14th century and is the tallest belfry in Belgium, reaching a height of 91 meters. Originally built to store the city’s charters and treasures, it also served as a watchtower for spotting enemy invasions and fires. Visitors can climb the tower via a spiral staircase or take an elevator to enjoy panoramic views of the cityscape. Inside, you'll find the impressive carillon with 54 bells that still ring out today. Atop the belfry is a gilded copper dragon, symbolizing power and protection. A visit offers a fascinating glimpse into Ghent’s rich history and architectural splendor.
