Den Bell
The most striking part of the entire complex is the tower. This tower was erected in 1953 by architect Hugo Van Kuyck. It housed the offices and administrative center of the company. The tower is 58 meters high. The tower is used by the city as a meeting center, while the lower buildings are used as offices. Maintaining the open staircase in the tower was not that easy because of fire safety. The square in front of the tower’s entrance has been given the name Francis Wellesplein, after the first managing director of the company.
