The Belfry of Lille is an impressive tower located on the Place Simon Vollant in Lille. It is one of the 56 belfries in Belgium and France that was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2005. The tower is 104 meters high, including the revolving spotlight.
The building was designed by the architect Émile Dubuisson and was completed in 1932. It is built in the Art Deco style using noble materials such as wrought iron, marble and wood.
The staircase to the top of the tower consists of 415 steps, but you can also take the elevator.
From the top of the tower you have a breathtaking view of the city of Lille and its surroundings.
