A gothic cathedral in Ypres, with a richly detailed façade, a porch with a large rose window

The cathedral was rebuilt identically after the First World War, giving it the spire it previously lacked and raising it to a height of 100 meters. The façade is richly detailed, with a porch topped by a large rose window and a simple stained-glass window. Inside are the tombs of Jansenius - who gave his name to Jansenism - and the Lion of Flanders, Count Robert de Béthune, an emblematic figure of the region. There's also a lapidary museum dedicated to the cathedral's ancient stones.

Cathédrale Saint Martin
C’est le début de notre visite par l’immense place et la cathédrale de Saint Martin. Ce jour ,une immense roue de manège était installée…
La cathédrale est d’une qualité et d’une beauté incroyable. Elle impose aussi par sa robustesse. L’environnement est calme avec aussi le Beffroi et les jardins.
Ne pas oublier l’intérieur de la cathédrale avec les somptueux vitraux, le chœur, les personnages etc. Nous avons aussi apprécié les nombreux panneaux d’information.
