    On the square - in the center of a pond - is still the bronze sculpture group "Ros Beiaard and the Four Heemskinderen", designed by Aloïs de Beule (1861-1935) and Domien Ingels (1881-1946)
    During WWI, the Germans wanted to confiscate all the bronze statues of the former park for their weapons industry. Given its size and weight, the Ros Carillon has remained where it stood during the world exhibition in 1913.

    The bronze statue “Ros Beiaard and the Four Heemskinderen” by Aloïs De Beule and Domien Ingels is indeed located in Ghent, on the Kasteellaan near the Sint-Lievenspoort. This monument, unveiled in 1930, is a powerful tribute to the medieval legend of the Ros Beiaard and the Four Heemskinderen. Although the story is mainly connected to the city of Dendermonde, this group of statues was placed in Ghent as an important artistic work by De Beule and Ingels, both closely associated with the city.
