Het standbeeldje is rond het eerste deel van de 19e eeuw in het stadhuis van Mons gemetseld.<\/strong> De oorsprong van het aapje gaat nog verder terug, waar in de geschiedenisboeken het kleine diertje al veelvuldig wordt besproken. Het aapje van Mons staat bekend als een geluksbrenger. Volgens de verhalen zullen je wensen uitkomen, wanneer je de kop van het aapje streelt en daarbij een wens doet. In elke souvenirwinkel van de stad kom je replica&#39;s tegen van het standbeeld, wat toch wel een beetje het boegbeeld van de stad is!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":587551,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"tip_category":[3244],"class_list":["post-12853","tip","type-tip","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tip_category-bezienswaardigheden"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Het aapje van Mons is een bezienswaardigheid in Mons<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Het aapje van Mons is een bezienswaardigheid in Mons.
