Discovering the City of Sugar
In museum the Toreke, in the former city jail, you will discover unique Gallo-Roman finds. It is located on the Grote Markt, with the gothic Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-ten-Poelkerk nearby. A little further on is the oldest church in Tienen, St. Germain's Church. The Beguinage Church became a special little walking park after the 1976 fire. Another place of silence is the Necropolis, from the outside it looks like a church, inside 140 Belgian soldiers from WWI rest. Tienen also lives on traditions, from the brewing art of Brewery Vissenaken to the annual horse procession and the pilgrimage the Thirteen Times.
