Charming bookstore in gothic century church

Absolutely charming! The store is a sight to see and offers three stories of books and wonderment. There’s a modest English section on the second floor as well as a few old/antique books on the top floor. The books are priced quite high comparative to other shops but it’s worth it for the visit and a nice espresso in the accompanying cafe.

    Amazing Bookstore within Glorious Architecture
    Amazing bookstore. I read about this place almost 10 years ago and determined I would visit. On a day trip to Maastricht from Brussels today, I finally made it, and it is worth the effort and time to see it in its glory.

    casual/sophisticated bookshop/cafe
    Great selection of all kinds of books, in different languages, very extensive, some quite select, betrays it's a university town. Wonderful space in some kind of old church or monastery or whatever it is, repurposed for this. With cafe space with people either talking to each other in a pleasant way or reading something interesting, Very good for the atmosphere, even if you don't buy anything. But the selection of books is so extensive and eclectic chances are you will some cross something you will want to possess. At peak times it can get crowded. At least worth popping into for a moment for the visual. Enjoy.
