"De Kloveniersdoelen is in 1607 gebouwd in de Vlaamse Renaissancestijl. Het is een prachtig gebouw met 36 sierankers. De Doelen was de oefenruimte (doelen) van de Kloveniers. De kloveniers waren de schuttersleden die met de bus schoten. In de Franse tijd was het een militair hospitaal.

Van 1984 tot 2004 was het gebouw het onderkomen van de Stichting Centrum Nieuwe Muziek. Nu heeft het pand een horeca- en cultuurfunctie in de vorm van een combinatie van een grand-café, cinema, zalen en een tuinterras."
