Mons pitfall to avoid

The UNESCO centre and heritage constraints.

The historic centre of Mons is UNESCO-listed (belfry, Grand-Place). New-build programmes in the hyper-centre are subject to heavy heritage constraints: imposed materials, strict massing, frequent appeals. Check the final and clear permit before any post-deed payment.
