Oude Vismarkt Description
The superb Baroque building at Sint-Veerleplein No. 5 is the old fish market, built in 1689 according to plans by Artus Quellin. Following a fire in 1872 it was extended and connected to the new meat market in Rekelingestraat. The gateway depicts Neptune and allegorical representations of the Scheldt (male) and Leie (female).
