Beautiful and quiet Beguinage. Please note that this is not a tourist attraction. There are people living here who prefer the peace and quiet and keep the area tidy and peaceful, so be sure to respect this.

An architecturally beautiful building with elegant interiors and a sweet cafe.

A total of 13 beguinages in Flanders are listed under UNESCO. Of the 13, this is the newest one and has been built in the 19th C Neo Gothic Style. The Begijnhof by itself is exceptionally large and the Cathedral is just huge & tall with 2 floors, filled with stunning stained glass.

Great vlassical beguinage, cozy and quiet location. The main church is now used for functions and exhibitions. Also served as filming location for several flemish movies.

A unique Nineteenth century beguinage. I absolutely loved the atmosphere and the perfect state of the buildings. It has been inserted in the UNESCO World Heritage List not surprisingly and deservedly! On an (almost) autumn Sunday afternoon, having a walk within the walls of this city in the city was very relaxing. There are explanatory panels scattered around. Just a pity that the church was closed and under renovation. The beguinage is in a residential area. Recommend a visit!

Nice hang out place with more budget. It is pretty on the outside and inside.

(Translated by Google) Worth a visit, never seen a great beguinage (Original) Bezoekje waard, nog nooit zo een groot begijnhof gezien

(Translated by Google) It is like a medieval village near Ghent dam gate and a beautiful church that is often used for concerts and exhibitions (Original) Het is net een middeleeuws dorp in de buurt van Gent dampoort en een mooie kerk die vaak gebruikt wordt voor concerten en tentoonstellingen

(Translated by Google) Very antique houses, even the streets are still from 1800, with beautiful courtyards but you have to call to see them. If you ask them kindly, they will let you in. Top location .. (Original) Heel antieke huisjes, zelfs de straatjes zijn nog van 1800, met mooie hofjes maar je moet wel aanbellen om ze te bezichtigen. Als je het vriendelijk vraagt laten ze jou binnen. Top locatie..

(Translated by Google) Beautiful Begijnhof worth a visit !!! (Original) Prachtig Begijnhof zekers een bezoekje waard !!!

It was the Duke of Arenberg who made 7 hectares of land available to the beguines in 1872. On this land, the architect Jean Baptiste Bethune will erect the large beguinage. There were several hundred beguines in his time. The last one piously died in 2008 at the age of 99. As in all beguinages, it is the calm of the place that encourages you to stop there, far from the noise of the city... only here, the acorns of the old oaks which fall on the street paving stones disturb the serenity of the places🤔. A small detour when visiting the city is essential.

Has an interesting Van Eyck related exposition going on. A bit of a gloomy atmosphere.

Personal experience.

Hidden gem just outside the centre

I love it

(Translated by Google) Good restaurant with an unbeatable value for money. Access for people with reduced mobility. The palace in itself is magnificent. Built at the beginning of 1700, it was the residence of Napoleon and the Belgian kings. Converted into a museum, it is now a restaurant (Original) Bon restaurant avec un rapport qualité/ prix imbattable. Accès pour les personnes à mobilité réduite. Le palais en soi est magnifique.

High ceilings, high windows, beautiful wallpaper and chandeliers. And the food is mmmmm😃 (Original) Antwerpen is op zich al geweldig met de kerst en lunchen in het restaurant van het paleis is.....alsof je even terug gaat inde tijd.

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful beguinage, just a pity that cars are parked in every street. So you can't take beautiful photos and the beguinage loses much of its charm. Cars away and it would be worth 5 stars! Addition: the church and a number of houses were completely in the scaffolding. (Original) Erg mooi begijnhof, enkel jammer dat er in elke straat auto's geparkeerd staan. Je kan dus geen mooie foto's nemen en het begijnhof verliest veel van zijn charme. Auto's weg en het zou 5 sterren waard zijn! Toevoeging: de kerk en een aantal huizen stonden volledig in de stellingen.

Nice place to visit. Its in a old part of Antwerp, so worth to visit

(Original) Un beguinage paisible et ressourçant. C'est un lieu qui recèle une riche histoire, certaines ruelles vous feront même peut-être penser à l'univers d'Harry Potter.

(Translated by Google) You can walk, we went to see the two beatorios, the two are somewhat different. We went on Saturday and by bad luck they were closed, we were able to go around anyway and we saw the houses.

Nice place. It looks like among other places in Antwerp only the King's places still have the Elegance and charm. The service is very nice. The men officers look somewhat like body guards, probably tradition to be suspicious against German tourists since wwII. :) Waffles were not hot. In fact barely warm. Still recommend this one against others. Caution: toilets here still need renovation and located unsuitably. Avoid using them to keep the full satisfaction.

The most devine place in Ghent to fond rest and space for contemplation

(Translated by Google) Very skillfully beautiful, but little light in the evening (Original) Geschied kundig mooi, wél weinig licht savonds

Nice Place, Terrible Food. We had cream tea which was prepared at least the evening before and a two year old would have been more adventurous with the sandwich fillings. You couldn't pay me to eat here again. Nice place for a glass of wine though.

(Translated by Google) Nice and cozy (Original) Красиво и уютно

The food and the service were great. Our waiter was a real pro. We were in a group of 8 and everyone loved the food.

Very good place where to eat, and to visit. There is a beautiful shop for houses.

One of the most opulent palaces to visit in Belgium

Very nice

(Translated by Google) Nice building but the interpretation does not fit. Should have previously become an authentic palace museum instead of the current interpretation. (Original) Mooi gebouw maar de invulling past er niet bij. Mocht eerder een authentiek paleis museum geworden zijn ipv de huidige invulling.

(Translated by Google) The building is very beautiful. But unfortunately we had incredibly unfriendly service and cold coffee. (Original) Het gebouw is heel mooi. Maar we hadden helaas ontzettend onvriendelijke bediening en koude koffie.
