Belfry of Ghent

The Belfry of Ghent is a 91-metre tower built between 1313 and 1380, the tallest belfry in Belgium and part of the UNESCO-listed Belfries of Belgium and France. A gilded dragon tops the spire, the tower holds a carillon, and visitors climb its floors to a walkway with views over the city; the Cloth Hall adjoins it.
