Ronse (Renaix in French) is a city of about 26,000 inhabitants in the Belgian province of East Flanders, on the border between the Flemish and Walloon regions. The city is known for its textile history, hilly landscape and rich cultural heritage.
The medieval textile tradition of Ronsse made it an important textile center in Europe, and historic buildings such as the Gothic church of St. Amour remain in the old town today. The city's annual "Carnival of Ronseil" is listed as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of the United Nations and attracts many visitors with its traditional music and costume parades.
The hilly landscape of the Flemish Ardennes that surrounds Lonser is ideal for hiking and biking. Notable attractions include the Municipal Museum, which preserves medieval textile tools, Mount St. Amour, which overlooks the city, and the cross-border nature trail that connects Flanders with Wallonia.
The city is about an hour's drive from Brussels and is connected by rail to Ghent and Lille, France. The modern economy is based on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), logistics and cross-border cooperation, as well as cultural tourism based on the cultural heritage.
