Gravensteen

The only surviving "castle of the count."

Reviewed By Spud479 - London, United Kingdom

We visited on a red hot day and the castle was cool in more ways than one way lol For 12 Euros we collected the audio tour and chose the English tour, a Belgian comedian called Wouter Deprez gave a wonderfully funny version of this horrible history, he got the tone just right and We found ourselves laughing out loud on several occasions ???????? This is great value for money and a must see when in Ghent

Eperon d'Or - industriele erfgoedsite

In Eperon d'Or you discover the industrial history of the region. The imposing Art Deco building dates back to 1930, the factory to 1910. Today this old shoe factory is emerging as a real industrial heritage site. The famous brush and shoe industry are at the forefront, but there's also a lot of attention to the wide impact of industrialization on the city, the region and its inhabitants.

Reviewed By edb404 - Ostend, Belgium

Beautiful museum containing an interesting exhibition of brushes and shoes in a historical international and local setting, taking in account the decline of manual work executed by home working families...due to industrialisation, automation and globalisation. Sober but informative setting.
