    Muziekcentrum De Bijloke is the oldest building in the world that has been permanently and custom-designed as a music center. Renovated in 2019-2020, the concert hall is internationally acclaimed for its acoustics. The fact that the concert hall is actually a hospital from the thirteenth century is also unique and an experience for both musicians and visitors. Quote: "The majestic oak ceiling and the ancient walls form an infirmary in 1251." According to research into the roof construction, the oak trees used for the former infirmary would have been felled sometime between 1251 and 1255. The exterior of the construction of the medieval infirmary, today a concert hall, consists entirely of Tournai stone.
