Hotel d'Hane-Steenhuyse, Aristocratic residence in Veldstraat, Ghent, Belgium.

The stone mansion features a Louis XV style facade with Corinthian half-pilasters, decorated interior spaces, and a garden-facing section connected by a carriageway.

Between 1768 and 1773, architect Jan Baptist Simoens created this grand townhouse, which later hosted King Louis XVIII of France during his exile in 1815.

The interior contains paintings by Petrus Norbertus van Reysschoot and Peter Paul Rubens, along with period furniture displaying 18th-century Belgian craftsmanship.

Guided tours operate every Sunday at 11:00, with admission costing 7 euros, while CityCard holders receive free entry after online registration.

The mansion's high ballroom features an Italian-style design with painted ceilings, mirrors, and a specially crafted parquet floor from the 18th century.
