't Galgenhuis stands at the corner of the Kleine Vismarkt bridge, appearing as a modest, compact structure strapped to the side of the Groot Vleeshuis. Its name translates to the Gallows House, a reflection of the site's grim history. The building once served as a place where prisoners were held to await the execution of their sentences, while the nearby Groentenmarkt served as the location for public hangings.
