The avenue is centuries old. The trees were planted in the 18th century by the Minderbroeders. It is about 500 metres long and 20 metres wide. The avenue is a protected city site and a popular wedding venue. In the avenue, there are several benches where you can enjoy the view.
The Lover's Lane is a lovely place to relax and enjoy nature. Not surprisingly, the avenue is so popular with couples in love. But also with people not in love.
