| Hotel Damier Grote Markt 41, 8500 Kortrijk, Belgium.A unique boutique & lifestyle hotel (a living legend since 1398), ideally situated in the historic city center of trendy kortrijk (only a mere 15 minutes drive from Lille & 35 minutes drive from Bruges & Ghent). The oldest document that makes reference to the Damier hotel dates from 1398. It mentions a ‘Herberg de Scaek’ (called ‘damier’ in French) where travellers could quench their thirst, satisfy their hunger and find a bed of straw. The inn’s name was adapted and changed repeatedly over the centuries. The name ‘damberd’ (draughtboard)emerged for the first time in the 17th century. This Flemish name was changed into ‘damier’ in 1795 during the period of French rule. A few years after the introduction of this name the building’s façade was renovated for the last time. Today, its magnificent rococo style dating from those times is considered one of the finest architectural assets of Kortrijk. The hotel was built around a courtyard garden, according to the tradition of Grand Hotels. |

Area information
This beautiful medieval part of the city is like a small, quite village inside the busy centre. The whole Beguinage is part of the UNESCO world heritage, so I guess, when you visit Courtrai, you just can't miss this!
Visit the 'Our Lady Church' with the famous 'Chappel of the Counts of Flanders'. This church was originally built inside the walls of the first medieval castle of Courtrai, and at the outside, you can still see the remains of the castles walls. It's really a beautiful church and one of the oldest buildings in Courtrai. In the 'Counts-chappel', you can see paintings of all the counts that have ruled Flanders.
