Visit the Grote Markt in Antwerp and the Town Hall immediately catches your eye. Its beautiful Renaissance façade is one of the most photographed spots in the city. Are you also curious to see what amazing things are located inside? If so, discover our five guided group tours inside this listed building, which has been recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Bel Etage (Schoon Verdiep)
In one hour, admire the splendour of the Bel Etage, the most attractive floor inside the Town Hall. Your guide will tell you all about the splendour you see before you and about the social, cultural and political significance of the impressive halls.
The Bel Etage and the Mayor's Salon
On this tour, you will also get to discover the Bel Etage, but you can now also enjoy a special extra: you will also visit the Mayor's Salon, which is rarely accessible to the public. That is why this tour only takes place after office hours.
The sustainable renovation of the Town Hall
Curious about the major renovation of the Town Hall between 2018 and 2022? Find out how this historic building was made ready for the future. On this themed guided tour, you will also discover some parts of the Town Hall not covered on other guided tours. Your guide will take you to the new multi-purpose space in the basement, the Illuminated Floor (Verlicht Verdiep), the old Council Chamber and the Mayor's Salon. Enjoy the view of the old city from the loggia, the panoramic balcony under the eaves.
The city palace of the Sinjoren
Fancy a longer guided tour? This tour starts at the beautiful outer façade and then makes its way to the ground floor. There, you will discover an exhibition on the history of this remarkable building. After that, of course, you will also explore the famous Bel Etage.
World Heritage that's Antwerp's very own
Do you really want to discover everything about the Town Hall? This tour is the most comprehensive tour of all and lasts almost two hours. You'll get to admire all of the highlights, from the façade at ground level to the handsome Illuminated Floor under the centuries-old eaves. During this ‘grand tour’, you will pass through a great many special places: the Mayor's Salon, the impressive gallery on the First Floor, the hidden organ chamber and the loggia, a panoramic balcony overlooking the old city and the cathedral.
