Main Religious Architecture Master pieces

Religion has been to the very heart of the world history and Belgium is no exception to that.

Monks and nuns have sculpted our countryside and brought a lot of know-how to our people. They have influenced our culture from the intelectual arts up to our likfe, and especially, food styles! However, it is as completely free minds that Southern Belgians enjoy and share now these assets!

This section will present you some of our best master pieces, which are sometimes still active with religious communities and activities (in this case they mostly are supporting breweries and cheese manufacturing activities which products can be tasted and bought on site), other times, they will show you an unsual reconversion, and eventually, you may also visit places that were turned into museums. In all cases, you will go from surprises to surprises, and you'll find out that theming your trip around this specific matter will bring you to the most interesting and vivid places of Belgium! Be prepared to be surprised.
