Also know as " 't Graffitisteegske" / "Graffiti Alley".
In 1995, after a Graffiti Event took place here, during the Ghent Festival, the city of Ghent declared the street as a zone in which graffiti artists would no longer have to run for the police. It became the first legal graffiti wall in town where many artist and artist-to-be can show off and practice their talent. There's only one rule amongst them: "Don't mess up a painting that's better than yours".
