    Hiking

    From 1947 to 2002, Nero appeared daily in Flemish newspapers.
    You can recognize the antihero by his thick nose, his bow and two hairs.
    The very productive Marc Sleen liked to respond to current events, but the nicest characters are pure fabrications: Madame Pheip, Adhemar, Tuizentfloot.
    The Marc Sleen Museum is located in the Zandstraat.

    Hiking

    Nero is one of the greatest Flemish comic book heroes. Originally, Detective Van Zwam was supposed to be the main character of the comic series. However, the readers found Nero much more likeable and that is how he got the lead role. On the mural you can recognize Petoetje & Patatje, clever son Adhemar and chip shop owner Jan Spier. The Guinness Book of Records recognizes Sleen as the most prolific comic artist in the world.
