From the bank in the Appelbrugparkje you have an impressive view of the old fish market. Enjoy the rest bench on the shore. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city. This is a forgotten spot in the big city of Ghent.

The Old Fish Market is located at the confluence of the Lieve and the Leie. From the late Middle Ages until the 1960s, fishmongers sold their goods here. It is one of the oldest markets in Ghent, originally located on the Groentenmarkt, but found its new home on Sint-Veerleplein at the end of the 17th century.
