Bilzen-Hoeselt

Built around a medieval market centre, Bilzen grew into a small town in Belgian Limburg, in the rolling Haspengouw region near the headwaters of the Demer. Its centre includes the market square and Sint-Martinus Church, while its defining monument stands outside town at Alden Biesen in Rijkhoven. The moated complex was once the headquarters of the Teutonic Order’s Bailiwick of Biesen and now serves as a cultural venue. Since 2025, Bilzen has been part of the merged municipality of Bilzen-Hoeselt. See how Bilzen fits into the wider Haspengouw and Limburg area by browsing webcams nearby.
