Boulevard ring
The boulevards around the historic centre form a closed loop along the line of the old town walls. This gives the centre a clear, rounded boundary on the map.

The map
Nivelles, in Walloon Brabant south of Brussels, grew around an abbey founded in the seventh century by Itta and her daughter Gertrude. The town plan still reflects that origin. A ring of boulevards encloses the historic centre, and inside it the streets converge on the large block of the collegiate church and the Grand-Place beside it. Beyond the ring, residential districts and roads fan out into farmland.
The Collegiate Church of Sainte-Gertrude is one of the largest Romanesque churches in Belgium, with a long nave and a massive westwork. On its tower stands Jean de Nivelles, a mechanical bell-striking figure who has become a local symbol. The town is also known for tarte al djote, a savoury tart made with cheese and chard.
A Nivelles map poster makes a tidy composition: a rounded centre bounded by boulevards, the large church footprint in the middle, and a looser surrounding fabric crossed by main roads and the railway. It reads clearly at every size and has the balanced look of a traditional European town plan.
The boulevards around the historic centre form a closed loop along the line of the old town walls. This gives the centre a clear, rounded boundary on the map.
Sainte-Gertrude's long footprint sits at the centre of town. Its size stands out against the smaller blocks around it and anchors the whole street pattern.
Beside the church, the main square opens up the dense centre. Several streets meet here, which makes it the natural focal point of the old town.

Why Nivelles
Nivelles is home to many families who commute to Brussels, and to residents with deep local ties. A map of the town, with its church at the centre, suits a new house or a first flat, and makes a good gift for someone who has moved abroad.
