In the heart of Herentals stands the Cloth Hall, the most important witness to Herentals' rich past. The building was built in the early fifteenth century by wealthy wool weavers and cloth makers to conduct their trade. In 1512, the building was almost completely destroyed by fire. Reconstruction was completed in 1534. Over the years, the town hall has undergone numerous repairs and renovations. The last major renovation took place in 2010. The Cloth Hall is a simple, rectangular building. The tower is approximately 35 meters high. Since the mid-sixteenth century, a carillon has hung in the belfry. The fifty bells together weigh almost four tons. The carillon is still played regularly. The oldest sources refer to the building as the "gulden huys," "meethuys," or "loothuys." Around 1430, the building was officially given the name "town hall." Since 1998, it has officially been called the Cloth Hall. The belfry is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Cloth Hall now serves a socio-cultural purpose, regularly hosting exhibitions and concerts. During exhibitions, the Cloth Hall is freely accessible. The belfry is not open to the public.
