The Cloth Hall in Ypres is one of the largest Gothic-style civil buildings in Europe. Built between 1230 and 1304, it served as a covered market place for cloth, an important trade product in the Middle Ages. The 70-metre high belfry, which was built from 1250 onwards, emphasises the power and wealth of the city of Ypres at that time. During the First World War, the Cloth Hall was completely destroyed, but it was later meticulously rebuilt and completed in 1967. Today it houses the In Flanders Fields Museum and the Ypres Museum.

There are a total of four lookout towers in the Blankaart. This one here is the highest: 10m. It overlooks the reed marshes and the wet hay fields. The inspiration for the design of the viewpoints comes from the reed marshes. Just as the bittern blends with its tall figure into the reeds, the towers blend into the open space of the Blankaart, while at the same time they are beacons in the landscape. The rising walls with sloping elements, openings and green plexiglass refer to the reed collars in which birds can hide and which still have a certain transparency.

The Cloth Hall (Flemish: Lakenhalle van Ieper) is a large, Gothic building complex located in the center of the Flemish city of Ypres. The complex originally dates back to the 13th century. The foundation stone is said to have been laid around 1200 by the Count of Flanders, and its construction lasted until 1304. The hall served as a transshipment and storage area for textiles (cloth hall). Part of the ensemble is a 70-meter-high belfry with a carillon that plays every half hour. On November 4, 1914, the German general Berthold von Deimling had the famous medieval Cloth Hall reduced to rubble and ashes without any military reason and against the express orders of his commander-in-chief, Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria. The Cloth Hall was reconstructed as faithfully as possible to the original from the 1920s to 1967. It is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The building is made largely of sandstone from the Arras region. The upper floor and corner turrets of the belfry, as well as the corner turrets of the hall, are mainly built of the yellow brick typical of West Flanders. In contrast to many buildings of the Brick Gothic style in Flanders, the brick here is drowned out by the lavish stone decoration.

Memorial and peace monument on the Yser. Inscription 'Never again War'. At the same time symbol or expression of Flanders' will for political independence (after the First World War). The tower and its associated crypt are Unesco world heritage. The old tower was built after the First World War but was dynamited in 1945-1946. The PAX gate was built with the rubble of the old tower. A new tower (84m high and 462 steps) was built (1951-1965) with a new crypt and now contains a 22-storey museum about the First World War (1914-1918).
