Amazing Facts About Tournai (Belgium) – Tournai is a municipality of Wallonia in Belgium, located 85 kilometers (53 miles) southwest of Brussels, on the River Scheldt. In the province of Hainaut, Tournai is part of Eurometropolis Lille-Kortrijk-Tournai, with 2,155,161 inhabitants in 2008.
Tournai is one of the oldest cities in Belgium and has played an important role in the cultural history of the country. It was the first capital of the Frankish Empire, where Clovis I was born.
Tournai is located in the Wallon Picard (Picardic) and Romance Flanders regions of Belgium, at the southern end of the Flemish Plain, in the Scheldt (Escaut in French, Schelde in Dutch). Administratively, the town is part of Hainaut province, which itself is part of Wallonia. It is also a municipality and is part of the French-speaking community in Belgium. Tournai has its own administrative and judicial district.
With an area of 213.75 square kilometers (82.53 square miles), it is the largest municipality in Belgium; it is also the most populous area of Western Hainaut. The municipality of Tournai includes the former municipalities of Ere, Saint-Maur, Orcq, Esplechin, Froyennes, Froidmont, Willemeau, Ramegnies-Chin, Templeuve, Chercq, Blandain, Hertain, Lamain, Marquain, Gaurain-Ramecroix, Havinnes, Beclers, Thimougies, Barry, Maulde, Vaulx, Vezon, Kain, Melles, Quartes, Rumillies, Mont-Saint-Aubert, Mourcourt and Warchin.
The rocks in the Tournai area can be traced back to the Carboniferous and have been used to define the Tournai era, which is a subdivision of the Carboniferous and lasted from 359 to 345 million years ago. Tournai stone is a dark limestone that has been polished, especially in the Roman period used to carve items such as Tournai fonts. It is also difficult to use locally for sidewalks and curbs. It is sometimes called Tournai marble, although this is geologically inaccurate.
The Faculty of Architecture, Architectural Engineering, and Urban Planning of the University of Louvain (UCLouvain) are located in Tournai.
