    Tips

    August 6, 2024

    The town hall has been located here since June 17, 2000, in a stately mansion that was built in 1899 by the Kortemark brewer Bonte-Rommelaere.

    At the top of the facade it says "Aurora". This refers to the canning factory that Aimé Talpe founded in Amersveldestraat in 1907. The house is therefore known as "Mansion Aurora".

    The Aurora cannery (whose buildings were demolished in 2015) later adopted the name "Star", a name that sounds much more familiar. Later the company was taken over by Bonduelle.
