The Gravensteen is a medieval castle at Ghent, East Flanders in Belgium. The current castle dates from 1180 and was the residence of the Counts of Flanders until 1353. It was subsequently re-purposed as a court, prison, mint, and even as a cotton factory. It is now a museum and a major landmark in the city.
Would you like to experience a visit to the Gravensteen with a touch of humour? Then you should book the audio tour, recorded by the Flemish comedian Wouter Deprez.

During the Revolt of Ghent in 1539 much of the abbey was torn down by Charles V. What's left has been taken back by nature. Yet it is still very beautiful, and it is amazing that any of the structure is still standing!
Tip: it is not open to the public every day to help preserve it, so be sure to check it first on the website.

One of my favorite places of them all is the Graslei. It is in the very heart of Ghent. These quays stretch along the Leie river with Graslei and its unique medieval buildings on the ring bank, Korenlei along the left.
You can drink someting at the local bars or you can shop in the Albert Heijn at the Korenmarkt and sit, while looking at the water.
It is one of the oldest locations in Gent and very beautifull in the evening.
