Cathedral of Our Lady
Visit to the Cathedral of Our Lady
Behold the pride of Antwerp! After 169 years of construction, the Cathedral of Our Lady was added to the Antwerp skyline. The imposing tower rises no less than 123 metres above the historic city centre. This makes the Gothic monument not only the tallest building in Antwerp, but also the tallest church tower in the Benelux. So it is not surprising that the Cathedral of Our Lady is one of the most famous sights in Antwerp.

In addition to its breath-taking height, the Cathedral of Our Lady is also an enormous treasure trove of works of art by the world-famous painter Peter Paul Rubens. At least as impressive are the stained glass windows showing religious images and the altar decorations. The setting today is partly baroque and partly neo-Gothic, which is what makes the Antwerp Cathedral so special. Reason enough to visit the Cathedral of Our Lady.
After visiting the cathedral, make sure to stop by at the bistro De Plek, which recently won an interior design award. In front of De Plek, the former St. John’s Chapel behind the sacristy has been converted into a cosy meeting place for residents, tourists and churchgoers. You can go there for a drink and a bite to eat. Beer aficionado? Then don’t forget to try the cathedral beer, available in blond and dark.
