Hiking
Het Pand used to be a Dominican monastery and now houses several museum collections and exhibition spaces. The imposing facades impress the spiritual person. In the Middle Ages, this building was a source of knowledge and wisdom. Unfortunately, the old library was largely destroyed during the iconoclasm in the 16th century.
Now you can relax here in the monastery garden.

This former Dominican convent has been beautifully restored and is now owned by Ghent University. It mainly functions as a conference centre, but it also houses a number of remarkable collections from various departments.
