Red marble heart set on a bluestone base engraved with the words “the beating heart of Overleie carries people through life,” a line by local poet Achilles Surinx, to honor the charitable work of the theatre group De Spatjes, and the selected design was created by artist Luche (Lutje van Calberg), who draws inspiration from nature, human relationships, religion and politics. https://erfgoedinzicht.be/collecties/detail/f7e8d77e-5b58-548f-bd82-1d0098210224/media/9da1db95-5b5c-7b88-2172-059466adff87

Dadizele has been a renowned place of pilgrimage since the 15th century. Pilgrims worship the statue of Our Lady and Child there. Construction of the basilica began in 1857 in response to the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. Monsignor Malou, Bishop of Bruges, wanted a monumental church for his diocese to honor this dogma. The plans were by the English architect Welby Pugin. The church of Dadizele was elevated to a basilica in 1882 by Pope Leo XIII. Along with the Chapel of the Holy Blood in Bruges and the abbey church of Zevenkerken, the Basilica of Our Lady is the only basilica in the diocese. The beautiful stained-glass windows depict not only the history of the church but also various facts from the life of Mary. In the crypt, we see the tomb, spurs, gloves, and sword of Knight Jan van Dadizele. The basilica is a protected monument and remains very popular, especially during the pilgrimage months of May and September. Source: toerismedadizele.be

Of course, these are not the belfry and town hall of Tourcoing, as the name of the highlight initially indicated, but those of Menen. The belfry, incorporated into the town hall, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, along with the Grote Markt. The historical function of this city tower was to warn of dangers such as fire with bells and to safely store important city documents. The foundation stone was laid in 1574 during the Wars of Religion. The building only acquired its current form in 1828. In the centuries before, the belfry was damaged several times. For example, during the siege of Menen in 1706, the spire was blown off. As a witness to a turbulent past, the 33-meter belfry still towers above the surrounding area today. It offers a magnificent view of Menen's city center and the border region. Beneath the belfry lies a bomb shelter from the Second World War. Source: information board on site
