The Belfry of Ghent is a UNESCO World Heritage monument and the symbol of the city's medieval independence and civic pride, a 91-metre Gothic tower completed in 1380 that houses the Great Roland bell and the city's famous Cloth Hall. The lift to the top provides the finest panoramic view over the extraordinary medieval cityscape of towers, guild houses, and canal bridges that makes Ghent one of the most beautiful and underrated cities in Northern Europe. Hotels near the Ghent Belfry are in the heart of the historic centre, within walking distance of the Graslei, the Castle of the Counts, and Ghent's outstanding restaurant and bar scene.
