De Nekker Tours

A calm oasis among the busy streets, De Nekker is an ideal place to take five. Find a bench and watch fellow park lovers wander around the grounds.

De Nekker is an interesting place to begin discovering Mechelen. This recreation and green space is recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Save time for other attractions like Planckendael Zoo, Technopolis, and Fort Breendonk to really experience what the area has to offer.

9/10 Wonderful! (21 reviews)
Naomi was a great help to us, helping with our dinner plans. The rooms were the best we had on our trip to Switzerland, France, Belgium and The Netherlands. We would highly recommend the Falco and gladly stay there again!

8/10 Very Good! (1 review)
Close to the main attractions and walkable. The 2. Bedroom apartment felt a bit small and the powder room /toilet is really cramped.

Mechelen City Hall
Dominating the horizon of Mechelen with its 98 metres, the 15th century Sint-Romboutstoren has a funny story. In the 1600s, a drunk local thought the tower was on fire. He alarmed the whole city and the people pulled up lots and lots of buckets of water, up all 538 steps, to extinguish the flames... Until it suddenly disappeared. It was a misty day, and when the moon slipped through the haze, the people realized there never really was a fire.. They were actually trying to extinguish the moon. That is why the people of Mechelen are still called the Moon Extinguishers today!
