Gerechtsgebouw, Modern courthouse in Hasselt, Belgium.

This legal complex includes a six-story office building and a twelve-story tower located next to the Hasselt train station at Parklaan 25.

The courthouse construction began with the foundation stone laying in December 2008 and started operations in May 2012, replacing multiple scattered judicial facilities.

The building design references the etymology of Hasselt, derived from Hasaluth meaning hazel forest, through its architectural form resembling a hazel tree.

The facility houses peace courts, police courts, labor tribunals, first instance courts, and includes underground parking areas beneath the main structure.

The courthouse exterior features a double-layered facade with the outer layer constructed entirely of wood, incorporating sustainable energy systems throughout the building.
