It was inaugurated in 1938 and was even a symbol of resistance in 1944, when three resistance fighters, led by Henri Dugailliez, went to hang a Belgian flag on its top on the morning of July 21, despite the presence of German troops. After the war, the tower was repaired and restored in a new form in 1976. This was known as the second tower.From 1996, the municipality prohibited access to the tower due to two rotten pillars and they considered a thorough renovation. It was decided to build a new, larger tower, 10m away from the first two towers, on a little hill. This made the new tower 3m higher and the final dimensions of the tower - designed by the architect Siquet - were 16.65m high at the top.The new tower was inaugurated on December 9, 2000.
