    The City Hall of Aalst with the accompanying Landhuis is a historic building on the Grote Markt in the Belgian city of Aalst. The neoclassical town hall building along the market side was built around 1830 under the direction of the Ghent architect Louis Roelandt. Behind the facade, decorated with the city's coat of arms, is the city hall on the two floors. Around the courtyard are the Rococo-style buildings of the former mansion. They were built as residence and service buildings for the Main College of the Land of Aalst. The elaborate clock facade of the main building with sundial and oculus (a small round window) is flanked by the memorial of the fallen from 1830 and the bronze statue of Ondineke. Ondineke is the main character from the book 'De Kapellekensbaan' by Louis Paul Boon.

      Aalst's Grote Markt (main square) boasts the neoclassical town hall, built around 1830 by architect Louis Roelandt. Behind the ornate façade bearing the city's coat of arms lies the spacious city banquet hall, while the rococo-style buildings of the former manor house are situated around the courtyard. A striking feature is the elaborate clock gable with a sundial and oculus, flanked by the memorial to those who fell in 1830 and the bronze statue of Ondineke, the protagonist of Louis Paul Boon's novel "De Kapellekensbaan" (The Chapel Road).
