Het beste van Aalst

Aalst Essentials

Aalst’s historical landscape is anchored by the Schepenhuis, one of the oldest city halls in the Low Countries and a UNESCO World Heritage site. The city and its surrounding districts, such as Hofstade and Hekelgem, feature a dense collection of Gothic and Neo-Gothic architecture, including the towering St. Martin's Church. Beyond the urban core, the region is home to Renaissance-style water castles and the influential Benedictine Affligem Abbey, reflecting centuries of Flemish cultural and religious heritage.
