The Belfort is a medieval bell tower in the heart of Bruges, Belgium, located south of the Market Square. Construction began in 1240, with the main structure completed in stages between the 13th and 15th centuries. Standing 83 meters tall, the tower features a chime system of 47 bells that chime every 15 minutes. Historically, it was used to preserve municipal records and detect fires. During sieges, the bells masked the sound of artillery fire. Visitors can ascend to the summit via 366 narrow steps for panoramic views, with access limited to designated hours. The tower served as a filming location for the 2008 film "In Bruges."

The Cathedral of Saints Michael and Gudula is located on Mount Treren in Brussels. In 1047, Pope Lambert II founded the Council of Saint Gudula at the cathedral and organized the transfer of the relics of Saint Gudula, which had been housed in the Church of Saint-Géry on the Isle of Saint-Géry. The cathedral's patron saints, Michael the Archangel and Saint Gudula the Martyr, are also patron saints of Brussels. The cathedral was renovated in a Gothic style in the 13th century, and the facade was completed in the mid-15th century. In the Catholic Archdiocese of Mechelen-Brussels, it serves as the cathedral seat of the Archbishop of Mechelen-Brussels, who is currently the Primate of Belgium. Because of its location in the capital, it is often used for national Catholic ceremonies, such as royal weddings and state funerals. The south tower houses a 49-bell chime made by the Royal Esbots Bell Foundry, which is often used for Sunday concerts.
