Aalst - The oldest city hall in Belgium
Aalst, French Alost, municipality, Flanders Region, north-central Belgium, on the Dender River, 15 miles northwest of Brussels. The town hall, with its 52-bell carillon, is the oldest in Belgium, and its archives include 12th-century manuscripts. Ravaged by fire in 1360, the town hall was subsequently rebuilt and its 13th-century belfry restored in the 15th century. The first printing shop in the Low Countries was established there in 1473 by Thierry Martens. The French took Aalst in 1667 during the War of Devolution that gave southern Flanders to France. The Germans occupied the town in both world wars. Industry is dominated by the manufacture of textiles, clothing, and textile machinery. The surrounding region supplies hops for long-established breweries; the city is well known for its specialty beers, as well as for its aperitifs and chocolates. The unfinished Gothic St. Martin’s Church has vault paintings, a picture by Rubens, and a remarkable tabernacle containing sculptures executed by Hieronymus Duquesnoy the Elder. The complex of late-Gothic architecture in Aalst makes it an important tourist destination, and tourism-related businesses are an important part of the local economy.
Flemish masters in situ - Sint-Martinuskerk Aalst
Visit: vlaamsemeestersinsitu.be or flemishmastersinsitu.com
Flemish Masters in Situ helps visitors find a set of truly unique places away from the well-trodden and busy tourist trail. These works may be hidden gems in well-known art cities, but they are mainly tucked away in smaller towns and villages across Flanders.
Flemish Masters in Situ also opens the doors to places otherwise closed to the general public. In this way the project takes visitors to churches, chapels, monasteries, beguinages, castles and town halls where they can admire original paintings by the Flemish masters of the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries in the locations they were originally created for.
Flemish Masters in Situ lets visitors discover and experience these often unknown works, setting the right atmosphere through discrete scenography. Texts and images bring the spectators closer to the works they are looking at and highlight the many sublime ways in which the Flemish masters included the future surroundings of their masterpieces.

The aim of the choir, as its name expresses, is to sing to the Lord. The choir consists of 90 persons, boys and men, aged between 10 and 40.
Simon was born in Aalst at the 25th of November 1991. In 2003 he joined the boyschoir 'Schola Cantorum Cantate Domino' and has been the soprano soloist for three years now. He also follows music lessons at the music school of Aalst. His teacher at the moment is the soprano Diane Verdoodt. As a boy soprano he already sung solo's of different composers. Some of these works are the Te Deum of Charpentier, the Krönungsmesse of Mozart, Handel's Messiah, Gloria of Vivaldi... He also performed at the Christmasconcert at the palace of the Royal Family of Belgium. Besides his career in the choir Simon also performed with other conductors such as Gabriel Garrido (Les vespres de San Ignacio of Zipoli), Howard Shore (Lord of the Rings Symphony), David Angus (Chichester Psalms of Bernstein). In April 2006 he will sing the soloparts in the Vepres de San Ignacio of Domenico Zipoli.
