A superb "hofje" (city within the city), this beguinage hosts several churches and exudes a unique and timeless atmosphere.

The begijnhof, founded in 1346, was destroyed several times by fire and then rebuilt. Note the small medieval church. At no. 34 stands the town's oldest wooden house. The Catholic church, hidden away at no. 29 since 1665, opposite the Anglican church, can be visited during the French-language mass on Sundays at 11am. It's a sublime place that leaves no one indifferent. When you visit, keep your voice down for the peace and quiet of the inhabitants.

Une ambiance totalement différente du reste de la ville ! Petit lotissement très paisible avec de jolies et anciennes maisons. Ça vaut le coup de s’y arrêter un instant.

Très bel endroit au cœur de la ville mais très petit. C'est très silencieux et l'on peut visiter une petite église.

Un petit jardin secret au coeur de la ville. La visite est rapide mais c'est un lieu surprenant en centre ville.

Belle cour intérieure
Ensemble social pour femmes pieuses, à l'origine. Conserve une vocation sociale réservant ses logements à des femmes. A noter, se faisant face une église catholique et un temple protestant.
