Centrum Ronde van Vlaanderen, Cycling museum and cultural center in Oudenaarde, Belgium.
Centrum Ronde van Vlaanderen is a museum and cultural center in Oudenaarde dedicated to the history of a famous cycling race with various exhibits on display. The building offers multimedia installations and interactive displays that have something to offer both cycling enthusiasts and visitors interested in local history.
The center was established in 2003 when the provincial government decided to preserve the heritage of one of Europe's oldest cycling races. This initiative was meant to document the race's history and its significance for the region and make it accessible to future generations.
The center honors the cyclists who came from this region and whose names remain tied to Belgian cycling today. This bond between local athletes and the region's identity is visible throughout the exhibitions.
The facility has showers and a bicycle rental service for visitors who want to ride after their visit. Three cycling routes of different difficulty levels can be started from here.
Visitors can experience riding alongside famous cyclists on virtual cobblestone roads through computer simulations at the center. These simulations give an impression of what it means to tackle such difficult terrain.
