In the northern part of the Citadel Park there is a beautiful cast iron construction on an octagonal plinth in natural stone. This music kiosk was built in 1885 under the direction of the Ghent city architect Charles Van Rysselberghe. You will also find an authentic music kiosk on the Kouter.

The bandstand in the Citadelpark is one of the most iconic and beloved parts of the park in Ghent. This graceful bandstand, built in 1885, is characterized by its elegant, round structure and beautiful wrought iron decorations. The design, created by Ghent architect Charles Van Rysselberghe, reflects the style of the 19th century and was originally intended for holding music performances and other cultural events in the open air.

The bandstand is located in the middle of the park and offers a beautiful, nostalgic atmosphere. Although the bandstand is less used for concerts nowadays, it remains a popular place for visitors to admire, often as a resting point during a walk through the park.

Just past the caves is a nice tent where people often sit
