The sculptures dotting the streets of Aarschot tell the stories and legends of the city. This walk takes you past about twenty of them. Take your time to uncover the story behind each sculpture. Along the way, you’ll also admire various landmarks, such as the Gothic Church of Our Lady, the Beguinage, and the ’s Hertogenmolen windmills on the Demer River. And you won’t run out of things to see anytime soon: the city council has vowed to unveil a new sculpture every year.
