Tips

September 9, 2023

Some will appreciate the many cafés and restaurants, others will be more attracted to the facades of houses from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries where many of these businesses are located. But the buildings that attract all the attention, especially with their spacious squares, are the Town Hall and the Church of St. Sulpitius and Dionysius.

Pre-urban Diest developed from the 11th century around the Grote Markt and the predecessor of the Sint Sulpitiuskerk. The Grote Markt formed the centre for economic activities. Due to the various guilds and crafts that gathered around the Grote Markt, it also became the centre of social life in Diest. In addition to the Town Hall and the Sint-Sulpitiuskerk, you will find other important buildings along the Grote Markt of Diest that often bear their own name. Some examples are: Den Haan, In den Keyser, De Wilde Man, ’t Haasken, De Violette, De Roos, De Leliekamer etc.
