Art Deco... in all its glory... in Ronse

Between the two world wars, Ronse grew to become the second-largest textile center in Flanders after Ghent. Nowhere else will you find such a rich concentration of heritage sites from this golden age.
The city is dominated by factory buildings large and small, by working-class neighborhoods and alleyways, but also by spacious Art Deco houses and villas belonging to the former manufacturers.
The wealth this brought to the textile barons was reflected in the Art Deco homes built here. During this walk, we’ll search for stone witnesses to hard work and how that was reflected in the streetscape.

Tip: This tour uses numbered points. For the best experience, follow them from 1 to 20.
