Featured(image: "F5Korenmarkt", name: "Cataloniëstraat", information: "03/01/2023 - 17u33\n\nOriginally, this narrow street led from the former Kleine Koornmarkt and the south side of the St. Nicholas' Church to the Belfry. It was historically known as Cattesteghe.\n\nThe street played a significant role near the St. Nicholas' Church and had two alleys on its south side: the Heilige Geeststraatje and the Kromsteghe. In the late 19th century, it was widened and renamed Sint-Niklaasstraat.\n\nAlong this street, there were four businesses: the house of roof tilers and cheese merchants between the Heilige Geeststraatje and the Kromsteeg, the house of masons on the corner of Kromsteeg, whose front facade was demolished in 1852 but rebuilt on the Graslei for the 1913 World Exhibition.\n\nLastly, there was the house of carpenters, which was demolished at the end of the 19th century. In 1834-1835, the street was widened under the mayor Van Crombrugge, resulting in the demolition of the northern section.\n\nIn the early 20th century, the houses on the southeast and southwest sides of the Sint-Niklaaskerk were demolished as part of urban development works under the mayor Braun.\n\nInfo source: Inventaris Onroerend Erfgoed: Cataloniëstraat, https://id.erfgoed.net/themas/2861 (consulted on 1 August 2023)."),

The intention was to construct a new beguinage on this land for the beguines expelled by the Commission of the Civil Godshuizen from the confiscated Groot or Sint-Elisabethbeguinage in Ghent, which was founded in 1234.\n\nIn 1873, construction of the beguinage commenced based on the design by architect Arthur Verhaegen.\n\nThe beguinage was entirely planned in the style of medieval beguinages, resembling a walled city within a city, inspired by the Flemish Gothic architecture of the 15th century.\n\nIt extends over a rectangular southwest-northeast oriented site, with the main entrance located on the northeastern side at the end of Jan Roomsstraat, and the back entrance facing Engelbert Van Arenbergstraat on the southwestern side.\n\nAt the center and diagonally on this site lies an east-west oriented 'dries' (a central green area) with the church; opposite the west facade of the church stands the Groothuis, along with the infirmary and the chapel of Saint Anthony of Padua.\n\nThe beguinage comprises three squares: Sint-Elisabethplein between the church and the Groothuis, Sint-Beggaplein behind the church, and Sint-Antoniusplein in front of the rear exit. The first and second squares feature a grassy area, serving as a pasture, bordered with trees and wrought-iron fencing.\n\nEight streets provide straight and winding connections to the central 'dries' from the entrances: Arenbergstraat, Heilige Amandusstraat, Heilige Bavostraat, Heilige Livinusstraat, Puis IX-straat, Calvariebergstraat, Onze-Lieve-Vrouwstraat, and Heilige Kruisstraat.\n\nThe beguinage, consisting of fourteen convents for around thirty beguines and eighty houses, was inaugurated on September 29, 1874.\n\nInfo source: Inventaris Onroerend Erfgoed: Groot Begijnhof, https://id.erfgoed.net/erfgoedobjecten/122162 (consulted on 5 August 2023)."),

Featured(image: "F8Belfort", name: "Belfort", information: "26/04/2021 - 18u36\n\nThe Ghent Belfry, a recognised UNESCO World Heritage, is well worth a visit. In 1402, it was the place where city privileges were kept: in a chest, locked up in the Belfry safe.\n\nThe dragon, which has been up on the tower since 1377, kept an eye on the city as well as being the symbolic guardian of the belfry.\n\nThe Belfry also proudly carried the alarm bell, the ‘Great Triumphant’.\n\nToday you will find this bell, nicknamed ‘Roland’ by the people of Ghent, not far from the Belfort on Emile Braunplein.\n\nUntil 1442, the Sint-Niklaaskerk was the main watchtower. In 1442, the watchmen in the tower moved across to the newly completed Belfry. Along with the bell ringers, these watchmen, or the corps of ‘men who guard the city’, served until 1869. Fire was a particular danger in Ghent.\n\nThe stunning view over Ghent is bound to enchant you.\n\nInfo source: Visit Gent"),

Featured(image: "F11OudeDokken", name: "Power plant", information: "25/07/2023 - 21u22\n\nThe power plant was built in the 1920s in the centre of Ghent, close to Dampoort.\n\nUnder the direction of the City of Ghent, construction of the diesel hall began in the late 1960s. Since then, the tall chimney of this building has become a distinctive feature of the Ghent skyline.\n\nAfter the Ham power plant was integrated into the production park of EDF Luminus and connected to the national grid, the diesel generators gradually served more as peak power plants, operating for a limited number of hours in emergencies.\n\nIn 1993, the coal-fired units were demolished and replaced by a combined cycle unit (STEG unit).\n\nThirteen years later, two additional peak units powered by natural gas were put into service.\n\nIn 2006, two diesel generators were demolished, while the third one remained operational as an emergency unit during renovation works. It was taken out of service upon the inauguration of the new gas turbines.\n\nInfo source: Gent-Geprent"),
