Steenvoorde (French pronunciation: [stɛ̃vɔʁd]) is a commune in the Nord department in northern France.[3] Once part of the Seventeen Provinces of the Low Countries, Steenvoorde was the site of the beginning of the Beeldenstorm, or "Iconoclastic Fury." Today the city is known for its Géants du Nord, sculptures of giants that can be admired in summer festivals.[4]
