If you go someday, there’s a fortress and museum on top of the hill with WWI and WWII history, plus you get a view of the city from above. It’s also the hometown of the inventor of the saxophone, so lots of saxophone and jazz references. For example, there are giant saxophone statues lining the bridge in this pic. Also the Leffe original brewery and monastery is here. Worth a day’s visit if ever in Belgium! :)
I was there! Such an underrated and picturesque town.
It’s always so cool when someone shows up on here who’s been to the place in question. Unironically jealous!
