Ratings
From long past Mechelen was known as the capital of the Burgundian Netherlands, it’s fame dating from the 16th century, the reigning period of Margaret of Austria. From this splendid period date a lot of very important buildings and a lot of other important historical buildings. Mechelen’s fame is also due to the different carillons in St.Rombout’s Tower. The textile art enjoys also a good repute, when new designs are woven as well as old ones restored.
The Tourist Office offers the opportunity to get know Mechelen by organizing guided tours through the city and its surroundings.
Also for children we have a Toy museum and every season they have a special theme, two nature parks and the zoo Planckendael, Technopolis is a science centre where you can try all kinds of tricks.
