Geuzentoren, Television tower and ancient stone structure in Muziekbos forest, Ronse, Belgium
The round stone tower, constructed with local iron sandstone, stands at the summit of Muziekbos hill at 150 meters elevation.
Built in 1864 by M. Scribe, the tower reflects the nineteenth-century architectural trend of creating ornamental structures called Follies.
The tower gained regional importance when poet Pol de Mont named the surrounding territory 'Flemish Ardennes' during his visit in 1888.
Visitors can climb the internal spiral staircase with two mezzanine floors to reach the observation platform at the summit.
The tower rests upon an ancient Gallo-Roman burial mound where two urns containing cremated remains were discovered during excavations.
