Tienen is a small town with a great past: the Romans felt at home here and numerous buildings with illustrious names such as "Gulden Vlies" or "De Lombaard en de Prins van Luik" still testify to the splendor of the Middle Ages. Look at the magnificent medieval Onze Lieve Vrouw ten Poel church with a baroque spire, visit the Kabbeek, Cellebroeders or Bogaardenkloster, marvel at the St Germanus or Sacred Heart church.

Sugar made the city rich and it still cultivates this sweet legacy today: the sugar museum right on the market introduces you to the wonderful world of sugar and sweets. Find out about the most important aspects of growing sugar beets and processing them into sugar products.
Has your sugar level dropped during this intense tour? Then take a breather at the museum café for treats, local beers and other regional beverages.
