Gigantic cathedral in old town
This huge cathedral is just in front of the Town Hall, worth a short visit the interior while you are in old town. The interior has amazing design with painting. Worth a short visit if they are not in mass service.

A place to sit and admire the work of man
Whilst it is called a Church it has the atmosphere and grandeur of a Cathedral. .The doors were reopened in 2020 following a major refurbishment,I was a little concerned at first on how white the stonework is, not sure if it has been cleaned or painted. It is so clean and bright as it may have been when it was built. The carved wooded pulpit is impressive, never seen anything like it for size and such detailed carving.A beautiful place to sit and think

Magnificent
Beautiful church which reminds me a bit of our Christ Church Cathedral in Oxford. Beautiful selection of Dirk Bouts' paintings as well as Jan Rombouts the Elder. Free entrance which is always nice.
