Most of the facades were built in different neo-styles after World War 1. The main attractions are the town hall and the adjoining belfry.

The Grote Markt has long been the beating heart of Lier, which was granted city rights in 1212. Small and big events have been taking place here for centuries. The triangular shape would indicate the Frankish origin. In 1914 most of the buildings on the Grote Markt were destroyed. Miraculously, the belfry and the town hall suffered little damage. After WWI, some buildings were rebuilt in their original form, others were built in various neo-styles.

The Grote Markt has been the beating heart of Lier since the Middle Ages. For centuries it has been the setting for small and large events, markets, processions, processions, events and high visitors.
The triangular shape would indicate the Frankish origin.
According to tradition, the witch stone, a large round stone on the market, marks the spot where the last witch in Lier was burned. Executions took place here until 1842.
Together with the town hall and the belfry, the Grote Markt forms a beautiful backdrop!
