The Grote Markt (Grand Market Square) is a splendid sight right in the middle of the city. Dominated by the renaissance style Stadhuis (city hall), the square is lined with numerous guildhalls, high patrician houses with step gables and gold-plated ornaments and statuettes. The famous tavern Den Engel is located here. Admire the Brabo fountain, the late 19th century statue of the legendary Roman Silvius Brabo, who saved Antwerp from Druon the giant. Enjoy a Belgian beer, a Brussels waffle, or coffee at one of the cafés.
