Open Monumentendag 2026 - In good hands

On Sunday, September 13, 2026 , Menen takes you behind the scenes of its heritage during Open Monumentendag . The theme “In good hands” puts not only monuments in the spotlight but also the craftsmanship, care, and passion needed to preserve these places for the future. Discover how restoration gives old buildings new life — thanks to strong hands and knowledge from yesterday and today. Especially for this edition, we are opening recently restored monuments to the public. Come inside, look around, and hear the story behind the walls. Locations to visit (subject to change): · De Kapucinne · De Haute Cense · The air-raid shelter under the Market · Het Belfort
