Itinerary
Here we start. Every building on this square is a unique monument of cultural heritage and has its own story.
We shall see the exterior of the Belfry Tower and learn its main purpose through history.
This is where it all started more than a 1000 years ago...
This Basilica is where the Holy Blood is stored for already hundreds of years.
The street of the Blind Donkey. Why?
This square has a very dark history. Dark and stinky. Usually houses tell their own story: that's how it works here as well.
Most crowded. Most Photographed.
