Nice town with good restaurants and a tower to climb with view over the city. Parking is a available and walking distance to the town centre.

These two towers are the monument that to me defined Kortrijk It was very nice to see them from both sides of the river and it’s a very nice photo picture for those who like to take pictures. I am not sure if you can go inside the towers, but anyway, it was just nice to admire them from outside.

Iconic towers on bridge over river Leie in centre of Kortrijk. Lovely setting for sitting outside for a drink or meal

Lovely city with these two towers by the river.

Cool towers either side of cobbled bridge besides the river. Steps and seating either side of river and lots of restaurants look like will be open in the evenings. We watched a wedding take place just beside the towers looks like it happens fairly regularly

it's just beautiful there specially when it's sunny and you get a nice view of the canal, they are also well kept historical buildings in pristine conditions. well worth visit if you pass by Kortrijk

Beautiful peacefulness in this place

It's not the biggest shopping centre, but it's clean and has a good selection of shops, mainly clothing shops. It's right in the heart of the town centre and complements the existing shops in the town centre nicely. I wouldn't recommend coming to Kortrijk just for this, but it's worth visiting if you're already in the area.

This is a nice little mall in the heart of the town. From the inside it was a little empty, but they have many stores. The restaurant options on the top floor were limited.

kids friendly. they have a corner for baby where you can feed your child or breastfeeding or to change the diaper. they even have microwave to warm your baby food. There is also a small place where you can bring your child to play. and some rides… I wish they could add more kids rides for kids… And especially a grocery shopping.

So many store available inside and also busy during the weekend close to the train station

I´ve been to Kortrijk a lot, never to K. I HAVE gone to a lot of shopping centers, and must say..this is one of the better ones. A big Action downstairs! Toilets are clean and free! I..get the circle lamp things.. but they seem to have been hanging there for some time, so that..could be fixed.

In every part in that mall theres a lot of like same products. Is not clean on first throw the mall and youll find out that theres a lot so dissrespectfull salers in mall. You cant find what you want there. And prices are so much bigger than in the city stores. Dont have for kids playground... Do not reccomend...

Okay mall with the usual big shops similar the Ring. There is a lounge on the top for food and drinks. Please note parking is not free. Christmas decorations were nice though.

Great experience, both the immersive experience as well as the small but interactive exposition on the battle of 1302. Film starts every thirty minutes, audio in English, Dutch and French. Free entrance, tips for the amazing volunteers of course appreciated ;-)

Interactive, educative and free experience that tells you about earlier days of Flanders. One can watch a 20 min movie, have a look at the paintings or listen for stories in 3 languages.

A really impressive exhibition inside a beautiful medieval church. Was a surprise to find a museum inside a church - but the church itself is well worth visiting. Interactive displays that tell you the story of the battle of the golden spurs in 1302. Especially nice was the animated film, don't miss it (every 30 minutes, in English, French and Flemish)

Clean quite and very beautiful

The movie is absolutely stunning. Highly recommend visiting

Brilliant exhibition, especially as entry is free! Great way to learn about local history in an engaging way.

Rarely been that much impressed by a cultural experience such as 1302. Everything was well explained and interactive. I highly recommend to watch the 18minute visual experience

What a historical church! They have all these war of 1302 interactive displays and paintings that explain the Battle of the Golden Spears. I also come here on Sunday to celebrate solemn mass. So if you are a Catholic and looking for a place to pray quietly and a person who loves history, this Church is a must-visit in Kortrijk! :)

This church was such an amazing and unique and unexpected experience. Other than the fact that the interior is very nice, they had a small exhibition on the history of the flemish people and the role of kortrijk in the war of the golden spurs. There was an immersive experience in the room at the right that is simply unmissable

This is one of the oldest building in Kortrijk. It was built in the 12th century. What was interesting for me was the restored chapel with the many paintings of the portraits of the counts of Flanders. It is worth following a guided tour on those chapel and the church as the history and the many unanswered questions about the portraits are highlighted.

A beautiful church that houses a great museum on the Battle of the Golden Spurs (1302) and the Franco-Flemish War (1297-1305).

Good to get to know the story of the golden spurs. Very informative exposition. Feeling is that the church is more of a museum now.

This was an excellent experience. The films they have made about the battle are really effective, especially the one inside the chapel. The interactive information about the Oxford Kist for example is all very informative. I particularly enjoyed the thorough consideration of the battle, including the significance to the founding of Belgium as a country. A must see for anyone visiting this area!

Beautiful

This museum is well detailed and informative across all floors. Our family really enjoyed this museum and we learned so much. We highly recommend.

I bought a ticket for Triënnale Kortrijk only: it gives you access to only the top floor of Texture, (and to other locations in town). To see a video about underwater life... Yes, you have to climb up to look underwater.😄 But I passed the shop, where they have an amazing collection of books on flax and fabric.👌 Creative,wonderful presents are also on sale.🥰 In the workshop, teenagers were busy, creating their own tapestry. Showing me through the glass wall the work they were proud of.🥰👌👍

The middle floor with the detailed explanations in English / French / Dutch was fascinating insight into the history of this area as a powerhouse of flax / linen production. Really enjoyed our visit!

Well This was nice (in spite of the small children screaming like the place was on fire) . Learnt a lot around the production of linen ( and about the lingerie of catholic priests - first photo)

Wasn’t expecting much of a flax museum to be honest, but the museum provides a surprisingly interesting look at the rise and fall of the flax industry in the “Texas of Flanders”. You could read everything in English as well as Dutch and French.

Do you know why the Leie river has been so important for Kortrijk ? Because its flow connects the city thru its history around textile industry: One of Vlaanderen most important export products, #Courtrai flax ..and here in Texture Museum over Leie you can learn about this interesting fact ...and beyond with workshops and exhibits such "Textiel in Verzet"

Some of show room devices were not working.

I am only reviewing two of their beers. The Omer blonde is without doubt my favourite blonde beer, slightly sweet and very easy drinking. I make sure I buy a case each time I go to Belgium. The Le Fort is a superb chocolatey, caramelly dark beer that tastes more complex the more you drink.

Omer is a real good beer. If you like the moste of the belgian beers. This is a real good taste.

Nice visit!!

apparently they don’t sell beers (lady at the counter told me)

Great sour ale. Toured as part of red-brown sour ale day.

Interesting and lot of history.....

Best beer ever!!

The department you need never answers. The People who originally answer the phone don't speak English so you have to wait to find somebody who does. Then they tried to trains4u to the proper department after you tell them what you need but those departments never answer. I have been there many x in person they are all mostly very nice today I had a lady who was very rude

English service is available on most specialised desks. Drivers licence and marriage related were a bit tricky, but feedback has been listened.

If you follow the rules everything go smoothly. They are friendly. wish them the best

It was fine, but to make an appointment sometimes takes 1 month

Very polite staff, they speak English. Everything is organized very well.

Good, parking around could be bigger and for bigger car's but ok

Good and covid safe

We love to visit the churches, you can always sit there for a while and think about yourself. The church is huge, very nice, full of interesting paintings and sculptures. But what we love the most is the silence...

This is really worth visiting. They even have a free ticket to go up to the church. And the paintings inside are really delicate. Must visit!

THEY HAVE FREE SUNSCREEN.🤗🤗🤗 NICE CHURCH ARCHITECTURE YOU CAN GO UP TO THE TOWER FOR OVERLOOKING VIEW BUT YOU NEED TO BOOK A TICKET ONLINE AND IT IS FOR FREE. JUST SCAN THE QR CODE FOR BOOKING.

This church have 3 pipe organs.. You can go up to the tower!

One of the most adorable churches in Belgium, outside and inside

Fantastic

Gorgeous church! I took this photograph at night when I was visiting back in October 2016.

Pretty garden and you are able to look into some of the houses to see what they would have been like. There was an art installation that was quite interesting too.

Great little garden for a peaceful respite if you're walking in the area. I enjoyed this on a Tuesday afternoon with no one else around. It is well maintained and a lovely spot to visit.

Intimate cosy place, worth a visit, gives an idea how live was 2 centuries ago. Huge herbs garden well maintained.

(Translated by Google) Hidden gem! Don't pass this by in Sint-Jansstraat. In the space behind the entrance you will see a chapel, a water pump, a beautiful medicinal herb garden and more than 10 tiny houses. Poor widows used to live there. They were not Beguines. They had one room with a small bed and an oven, a staircase up to a small attic and a staircase down to a cool room. The houses are now painted nice white. Please note the opening hours: Open from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., during autumn and winter until 5 p.m. Closed on Mondays, Fridays and public holidays. (Original) Verborgen pareltje! Loop dit niet voorbij in de Sint-Jansstraat. In de ruimte achter de ingang zie je een kapelletje, een waterpomp, een mooie medicinale kruidentuin en meer dan 10 piepkleine huisjes. Daar woonden vroeger arme weduwen. Het waren geen begijnen. Ze hadden één kamer met een klein bed en een stoof, een trap naar boven naar een klein zoldertje en een trapje naar beneden voor een koele ruimte. De huisjes zijn nu mooi wit geschilderd. Let op de openingsuren: Open van 14 - 18 u., tijdens de herfst en de winter tot 17 u. Gesloten op maandag, vrijdag en feestdagen.

(Translated by Google) A very pretty, quiet, and flowery complex. You wouldn't think of such a peaceful place just a few meters from the shopping center. Open only in the afternoon. (Original) Très joli ensemble, calme, fleuri. On imagine pas un lieu si paisible à quelques mètres du centre commercial. Ouvert uniquement l'après midi.

(Translated by Google) Back in time and an oasis of peace and yet so close to the center of Kortrijk. And also interesting is the garden with medicinal plants and flowers. It takes some searching to find it, but it's worth taking a detour during a city walk. (Original) Terug in de tijd en een oase van rust en toch zó vlakbij het centrum van Kortrijk. En óók interessant de tuin met medicinale planten en bloemen. Het is even zoeken om het te vinden maar de moeite om een ommetje te maken tijdens een stadswandeling.

(Translated by Google) A cozy herb garden, supplemented with various flowering plants. You spend a maximum of 15 minutes walking through it at your leisure. Quite nice for a short stop to get away from the busy shopping streets. (Original) Een gezellig kruidentuintje, aangevuld met diverse bloeiende planten. Je besteed er hoogstens 15 minuutjes, om er rustig door te wandelen. Best leuk voor een korte stop om even weg te zijn vanuit de drukke winkelstraten.

Nice town centre with historic buildings. The cathedral and surrounding buildings are very well kept. Nice bars and restaurants to enjoy too.

To my knowledge, you cannot get into the tower, but it’s still a very beautiful monument in the square and kind of dissemble of the city. I enjoyed looking at it and reading the information that was written on the history of the tower.

A medieval belfry on the city's main square, dated to have been built in early 14th century. Is on the Unesco world heritage list (as one of "Belfries in Belgium and France"). It was originally part of the long since demolished Cloth hall, in fact also the belfry was planned to be torn down in late 19th century, but heavy protests from the local population saved it. Supposedly you can get inside, it did seem closed when I visited, so not totally sure if you can enter it or not.

Nice surrounding, just sit down and enjoy a Belgian beer and listen to the " beiaard "

In this busy student city, the market place offers a peaceful place to enjoy a coffee or meal in one of the many taverns. Statues, art, children's playground, lots of nice shops, something for everyone to enjoy

I believe this is St Martins Church adjacent to the Grote Market. Kortrijk is quite a pleasant place and easy to walk around. There is a lot of interesting architecture to admire in the area of the Grote Market and lots of places to eat and snack and watch the world go by. I believe that the area has frequent antiques markets outdoors also. The square also hosts live music and performances. Worth checking beforehand whats on.

You have just about everything around there. Stores, restaurants, bars, burger shops, hemp shop, hotels, ATMs, banks, sight seeing locations... Most times a very busy place. It's a good place to go relax outside in the sun at one of the local bars/taverns/restaurants.

(Translated by Google) Monument dating from the 14th century. Can probably be visited with a guide. (Original) Monument datant du 14ème siècle. Peut être à priori visitée avec un guide.

Beautiful historical gate

(Translated by Google) Less impressive than I first thought! "Groeningepoort". Natural stone gate, in keeping with the early Gothic style with pointed arch, battlements and trumpets. Shield with Flemish Lion and inscription "1302 GROENINGHEVELD". Built in 1908 according to a design by Jozef Viérin (Kortrijk). So-called "Groening Monument" and "park". Groeningepark, located between Groeningelaan and Plein. The park includes an avenue of tulip trees, maples, plane trees and shrubs from the Groeningepoort to the round park with the Groeninge monument. The monument also contains plane trees, a Himalayan cedar and a weeping willow. On the side of the Groeningelaan in 1906, the romantic-realistic Groeninge monument by G. Devreese was erected. The bronze whole is gold-plated and was cast in the "Fonderie Nationale des Bronzes" in Sint-Gillis near Brussels. At the top is a young woman, the allegorical Virgin of Flanders. She waves the scythe in her left hand, often mistaken for Good Day around 1900. With her right hand she holds the symbolic Flemish Lion in check by the mane; the lion has broken his slave bonds and is roaring menacingly towards France. The pedestal represents three episodes from the Battle of the Golden Spurs of 1302: in particular the farewell of a warrior on the left, the victory and Robert d'Artois killed next to his horse Morel. On the pedestal the coats of arms of Flanders and Kortrijk and the inscription: "KORTRIJK - BATTLE OF THE GOLDEN SPOREN XI JULY MCCCII". Connecting road built between the Plein and the Groeningelaan in 1900. From 1902 to 1968 "Antoon Goethalslaan", from 1968 to 1981 "Burgemeester Goethalslaan". In 1981 "Groeningepoort" after the so-called "Groeningepoort" founded in 1908. To the west, the St. Joseph's Institute and the Hospital of the Holy Family border the street. (Original) Minder indrukwekkend dan ik vooraf dacht! "Groeningepoort". Natuurstenen poort, sluit aan bij de vroeggotiek met spitsboog, kantelen en trompen. Schild met Vlaamse Leeuw en opschrift "1302 GROENINGHEVELD". In 1908 gebouwd naar ontwerp van Jozef Viérin (Kortrijk). Zogenaamd "Groeningemonument" en "park". Groeningepark, gelegen tussen de Groeningelaan en het Plein. Het park omvat een laan van tulpenbomen, esdoorns, platanen en heesters van de Groeningepoort naar het ronde plantsoen met het Groeningemonument. Bij het monument staan tevens platanen, een Himalajaceder en een treurwilg. Aan de zijde van de Groeningelaan in 1906 oprichting van romantisch-realistisch Groeningemonument van G. Devreese. Het bronzen geheel is verguld en werd gegoten in de "Fonderie Nationale des Bronzes" in Sint-Gillis bij Brussel. Bovenaan staat een jonge vrouw, de allegorische Maagd van Vlaanderen. Ze zwaait met de zeis in de linkerhand, omstreeks 1900 nog vaak voor de Goedendag aanzien. Met de rechterhand houdt ze de symbolische Vlaamse Leeuw in toom bij de manen; de leeuw heeft zijn slavenboeien verbroken en briest dreigend in de richting van Frankrijk. Het voetstuk stelt drie episodes voor uit de Guldensporenslag van 1302: met name links afscheid van een krijger, de zege en Robert d'Artois gesneuveld naast zijn paard Morel. Op het voetstuk de wapenschilden van Vlaanderen en Kortrijk en het opschrift: "KORTRIJK - SLAG DER GULDEN SPOREN XI JULI MCCCII". Verbindingsweg aangelegd tussen het Plein en de Groeningelaan in 1900. Van 1902 tot 1968 "Antoon Goethalslaan", van 1968 tot 1981 "Burgemeester Goethalslaan". In 1981 "Groeningepoort" naar de zogenaamd "Groeningepoort" opgericht in 1908. Ten westen paalt het Sint-Jozefsinstituut en het ziekenhuis van de Heilige Familie aan de straat.

(Translated by Google) This triumphal arch is not only a beautiful reminder of a great victory but is also beautiful in itself. Never can one see a more beautiful entrance to a park. The gate is built in the shape of a castle gate with battlements and tower shape on the sides. Existed since 1908 and was built in Ardennes stone. This beautiful monument was built to commemorate the 600th anniversary of the Battle of the Golden Spurs in 1302. The gate gives access to the Groeninge Park where the Groeningeveld was located in the Middle Ages. At the top of the gate a shield was depicted with the Flemish Lion and the inscription 1302 Groeningheveld. Beautiful ! (Original) Deze triomfboog is niet alleen een mooie herinnering aan een grote overwinning maar is ook prachtig op zich. Nooit kan men een mooiere ingang tot een park aanschouwen. De poort is gebouwd in de vorm van een kasteelpoort met kantelen en torenvorm aan de zijkanten. Bestaat sedert 1908 en werd opgericht in Ardeense steen. Dit prachtige monument werd gebouwd naar aanleiding van de 600 ste verjaardag van de Guldensporenslag van 1302. De poort geeft toegang tot het Groeningepark waarin het Groeningeveld gelegen was in de Middeleeuwen. Bovenaan de poort werd een schild afgebeeld met de Vlaamse Leeuw en met het opschrift 1302 Groeningheveld. Prachtig !

Mall is nice and new, a lot of choices to buy. Only ashamed think it is to they charge public toilets of 60 cents even for kids. And guy at table is rude to need to be paid because of costs.

The ambiance and architecture of this store are beautiful, and it was wonderfully decorated for Christmas. Many reputable brands have branches here, everything is clean, and there are plenty of comfortable seating areas available for convenience.

One of my favorite shopping centers in Kortrijk. You will find everything you need. It has become a very well maintained and clean shopping center since the renovations

There's always something new to see. Great place for shopping even if it rains. They have a huge FREE parking lot.

My favourite mall in kortrijk. They have a bubble tea shop, hunkemoller, Albert Heijn, zeeman, kruidvat and a Burger King very nearby.

If you need to get to the toilet prepare to go trough the whole shopping center because there's only one in the whole bulding. Also it's closed at 18:55 so pee your pants or run to the other side of the gallery to visit toilet at KFC for 50 cents. For sure my first and the last visit here.

Massive shopping mall with an assortment of restaurants and shops. Alot of free parking which is a plus. Downside is the bathrooms are not free considering the amount of restaurants here. It costs €0.6 but they give you a coupon and in select stores you can use the €0.6 if you purchased something

Great

Located in a small park, very peaceful area, a few benches to sit at, the monument itself is well kept, clean and tidy, not a great deal to see on its own but as part of a tour around Kortrijk it is worth viewing

created to commemorate the battle of the gulden spurs. In which a small pre-Belgian local army (mostly militia) were able to hold a much larger french army by using the environment.

It's a lovely spot to go read. For the area it is in, it feels really calm.

Nice monument, symbol of the flemish battle 'guldensproenslag'

Nice place to rest and relax

Very beautiful place

Pls, make better seating while renovating... Im 1m87 and i cant sit without having my knees in the seat in front of me. Besides that, great venue

Great restoration job on the theater. Comfortable seats and affordable drinks. Enjoyed it and recommend it.

Under renovation

Pleasant city. Perfect to be the meeting point to get know this area of Belgium.

Seats are not very comfortable. The view is great!

Nice theather with beautiful interior and comforatable seats

It was amazing
