Naar boven betekent niet helemaal naar boven. En in de toren hebben ze mooie weetjes zoals: waarom staat hier een klokkentoren? Omdat de vorige is afgebrand.

Obviously tickets couldn't be bought from the Belfry itself so we had to walk a little way and buy the ticket, written out by hand, from the UNESCO house and then walk up the winding path to the castle park and enter that way. Once inside you take the lift to the fifth floor and then climb a further three floors on a metal staircase to see the clock operating mechanism. And that's it, no balcony to see the views. Climbing down one floor you can look through windows to see a panorama of the city but they were so filthy it spoiled the experience. I walked a circuit of the small castle park and then we walked back through the town.

Le Beffroi de Mons est un des endroits incontournables pour votre tour de visite de Mons. C'est une belle tour carrée visible d'un peu partout dans la ville, mais particulièrement depuis le joli parc qui se trouve devant. On peut aussi monter dans la tour et voir la ville d'en haut. Pas sûr que cela vaille le prix d'entrée. D'un point de vue photographique, il vous faudra un grand angle et prendre un peu de distance. Le parc est parfait pour la photographier.
