    Tips

    Allow? Ambiorix! On the market square you will find a monument of probably the most famous resident of Tongeren. The imposing bronze statue of Eburon king Ambiorix from 1866 commemorates the legendary victory against the Romans in 54 BC. Chr.
    If you are drinking a delicious Morellenbier or La Cresse beer in one of the street cafes, also take a look at the Tongeren Town Hall. Does it look familiar? No wonder, because it is a one-to-one copy of Liège town hall. Liège architect Pascal Barbier designed the plans for both buildings. It is a fine example of the Maasland architectural style.

    You must have noticed the tower of the Basilica of Our Lady from afar. It is one of the most beautiful Gothic church buildings in Flanders.

    Our tip: if it works, visit the antique market on Sunday. Around 40 renowned antique shops and 350 (specialist) stalls offer century-old antiques, bric-a-brac, design, vintage and rare collectibles.

      Tongeren, the oldest city in Belgium, has a rich history. This history is particularly visible here on the Grote Markt. There are also countless restaurants and cafés lining the square.
