Description

The town hall of Oudenaarde (Oost-Vlaanderen), Belgium, is a prime example of Brabantine late gothic architecture. Constructed between 1526 and 1537 by architect Hendrik van Pede, it replaced the old aldermen's house and incorporated the existing 14th-century Cloth Hall. The building features a richly decorated façade with pointed-arch windows and a central belfry tower topped by a bronze statue of the local folk hero, Hanske de Krijger.
