What To Expect

Ijzerenleen

Mechelen's very own Champs-Élysées: a broad shopping street with imposing façades and one of Flanders' oldest town halls. The street's name refers to the iron railings once placed alongside a medieval brook where fishing boats moored.

Haverwerf

Three iconic 16th–17th century houses along the Dyle river: Het Paradijske, De Duiveltjes and Sint-Jozef. Each façade tells its own story — from the Garden of Eden to devils used as columns. A true highlight of Mechelen's skyline.
