At first, the Grand Place was small!

More precisely, there were 2 small squares separated by a row of houses, one in front of the St Martin church, and one in front of the town hall.

In 1869, the Grand Place took its current form, and in 1911, the new town hall was completed after 4 years of work.

The Grand Place was then considered the largest in the department, but it was cluttered by the tram terminus, then a bus station.

In 1999, the metro arrived, so architect Bernard Huet – who had redeveloped the Champs Elysées – was called upon for a major renovation, which gave pride of place to pedestrians.

This was also the time when an urban renovation policy was initiated with the renovation and coloring of the facades on the Grand Place, the Grand Rue and the Avenue Jean Lebas.

On the Grote Markt you will find the monumental white church with the equally impressive town hall directly opposite.

Very nice city hall and church. I would avoid to come here at night though.
