Beguinage with small houses arranged in their alleys, with bread oven, baroque church, hospital and medicinal garden

A beguinage (a UNESCO World Heritage site) with small houses neatly arranged along picturesque alleyways.

A veritable city within the city, the beguinage featured a bread oven, a Baroque church, a hospital and a medicinal garden. Luc Faydherbe, a master of Flemish Baroque, helped build the church.

Construit à l'écart de l'animation commerciale de la cité ce béguinage est un endroit tranquille , il est composé par des petites maisons aux façades à l'architecture varié qui s'étendent le long de ruelles peu fréquentées. A son extrémité la présence de la brasserie de la ville permet de parfaire ses connaissances gastronomiques.
