À propos
"In the center of the Grand'Place de Béthune, the Belfry. It's a lighthouse, the merchants' bell tower. A clear demonstration of the power and importance of the local market..
The Belfry is a miracle! It is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, like all the Belfries of Nord-Pas de Calais, Picardy and Belgium
Around the Belfry, astonishing, surprising and lively houses and buildings: as a consequence of a city centre that was 90% destroyed during the Great War, except the Belfry and a few houses, resisted the 70,000 shells that fell in 3 days!"
