Visit to the Cathedral of Our Lady

Residents of the Province of Antwerp and persons under age 18 are not charged admission. By paying admission, the other visitors contribute to the Cathedral’s professional visitor management.

While the Cathedral’s floor is a patchwork of tombstones, nobody is actually buried here. A number of the tombstones were recovered from an Antwerp church that was demolished. The remains of people who were buried in the Cathedral have since been transferred to a cemetery.

The Cathedral’s northern tower is the property of the City of Antwerp. You can book a visit through Antwerp’s tourist office. The southern tower can be visited as part of the Visit behind the scenes package. For further information, please refer to dekathedraal.be.
