Beautiful church
My twin brother Stephen and I were hitting the pubs along Parvis Saint Gilles and as a stunning backdrop to these great pubs is Eglise Saint Gilles . A beautiful looking church ,constructed between 1861-1878 ,this was the first church built in the Saint Gilles District when it was called Obbrussel,the architectural style is Baroque ,it's such an evocative looking church ,very photogenic,makes for some great photographic opportunities and adds to the joy of walking around Saint Gilles. Well worth checking out if you're in the area.

Beautiful Catholic church built in Gothic style
I've only seen the church from the outside, but the mosaics and how the arch above the entry door are made is magnificent.

Beautiful
We were quite taken aback by how lovely this church was. It seems as large as some cathedrals and the stained glass windows are really lovely. It is also clearly in use with its local community which is super.
