Antwerp City Hall
Grand guided tour of the City Hall (in Dutch) | individual ticket
This “grand tour” is the most extensive guided tour (110 minutes) in the Antwerp City Hall. It starts with a fascinating explanation of the façade, we learn in a small exhibition why this monument has been recognised as UNESCO World Heritage since 1999 and go on to explore the impressive administrative building from the ground floor right up to under the ancient eaves. Along the way, we pass the highlights of the acclaimed “Schoon Verdiep” (Bel-Étage), the magnificent gallery of the “Eerste Verdiep” (First Floor) and the handsome, but more contemporary “Verlicht Verdiep” (Illuminated Floor).

The fact that this guided tour is offered exclusively outside office hours means you get the chance to discover unique parts of the City Hall, such as the “Mayor’s Salon”, the secret organ chamber and the south side of the Renaissance loggia, a panoramic balcony with an unforgettable view of the Grote Markt and cathedral.
TIP: Does this guided theme tour seem a little too much for your group? Or are you not very mobile? Then choose a different tour from our offer at the Antwerp City Hall. After all, this “grand tour” involves lots of inevitable stairs between the different floors.
PLEASE NOTE: This multifaceted guided tour can only be offered outside normal office hours. So plan your visit at a moment during the weekend or on a public holiday. In spring or summer you can occasionally participate in an evening tour after office hours.
