City Hall, stands out as the most striking building. Dating back to 1390, it is a typical Flemish structure, which is unusual because we do not otherwise tend to see them on Dutch territory. The magnificent council chamber walls feature many coats of arms, decorations, objects and paintings. The Belfort's chimes can be heard every fifteen minutes. They are operated by bell ringer Jantje van Sluis, a colourful little wooden man.
This gourmet town offers are plenty of options for dining out. On the Groote Markt, for example, you will find Restaurant Ecluse and Hart van Sluis.
