Welcome to "The Rock." No, Dwayne Johnson doesn't live there.
This is the oldest building in Antwerp, and it still looks really good after more than 800 years. It was built a little after 1200 as part of a bigger castle complex that was dismantled in the 1800s. It stands as a lookout over the Scheldt River.
Het Steen used to be a prison and a museum. Now it's a tourist attraction. As you may have guessed, Het Steen is Dutch for The Rock.
