Grote Markt is a regular stop for tourists who visit Antwerp. The eye-catcher in this square is the city’s town hall, of course, but there are plenty of other beautiful buildings to see here too. The beautiful façades of the guild houses and the Brabo fountain combine to create a very attractive setting.
Construction on the town hall started in 1561. The Renaissance-style building was completed four years later. After a huge fire in 1576, only the walls were still standing. But the people of Antwerp were not deterred. It took a while to rebuilt. Currently the building is also surrounded by scaffolding. But soon it will shine like never before. Enjoy the view with a Bolleke on the terrace of Den Engel or one of the many other cafés in Grote Markt.
