Admired by Victor Hugo, the Saints-Michel-et-Gudule cathedral is a jewel of gothic style. The stained glass windows alone are worth a visit.

Visible from afar, recognizable by its Brabantine Gothic towers, the cathedral was originally the church of Saint-Michel-au-Mont, built on one of Brussels' hills. It was replaced by a Romanesque collegiate church in 1047. The relics of Saint Gudule were brought here from the church of Saint-Géry, and the building, renamed Saints-Michel-et-Gudule, became a place of pilgrimage. The stained glass windows in the side chapels date from the 16th century, after cartoons by Bernard Van Orley.

Cette église est vraiment belle, on la reconnait de loin avec sa tour gothique. Elle est située en plein centre et peut être visitée.
