Its location on the crossing of some of Kortrijk's most famous and most touristic spots makes the Grote Markt one of the city's busiest squares. However, it has been pedestrian-friendly after its renewal in 1999–2000 since the largest part of the square is now a pedestrian area.
The square got its current shape and surface after the demolition of the old Cloths Halls around the still existing Kortrijk Belfry. Its L-shaped form is due to the contours of the Medieval Castle of Kortrijk which used to border the eastern side of the current square.
