An interactive and accessible digital experience for both residents and tourists

The tourist information point of Gistel needed a contemporary, dynamic, and interactive way to immerse visitors in the city's stories and assets. 

The four major stories of Gistel - its cycling heroes, landscape, wind energy and milling history, and Godelieve of Gistel - were brought to life through advanced technology:

  • Touchscreens: Informative displays that provide visitors with deep insight into Gistel's rich history and heritage.

  • Listening horns: An auditory experience where visitors can listen to stories and historical facts in a unique and interactive way.

  • Interactive games: Specially developed for the youngest visitors, allowing them to explore the city in a playful manner.

  • Unique cycling experience: An innovative installation that lets visitors explore Gistel's cycling routes interactively.
