The Wall is a cobblestone road on the Oudenberg, the hill against which the city centre of Geraardsbergen is situated. In 1940, the Oudenberg was protected as a landscape and in 1995 the famous cobblestone road was declared a monument.

The Muur-Kapelmuur, the wall of Geraardsbergen or The Wall. Anyone who has never heard of this cycling monument is not a cycling enthusiast. Point. This cobbled road on the Oudenbenberg was for years the executioner in the Tour of Flanders.

More than a kilometer long with short sections at 20% make the climb beautiful, but it is mainly the cobblestones, the aesthetics and the beautiful chapel at the top that make this climb a monument to Flemish people. The cobblestones are placed horizontally and therefore form an erratic staircase that can only be survived at high speed. Whoever falls still has to sit on the blisters.
