Stunning and beautiful. Words can’t describe the feeling when you walk in the church. It’s truly a holy place. So much history. Very clean and quaint. Thank you
Nice church. Worth a visit.
The origins of Sint-Pieterskerk (Saint Peter’s church) date back to the 10th century. Construction of this Brabant Gothic church continued through the 15th century with its towers used as a municipal belfry. Its belfry is part of the collection of Belgian belfries recognized by UNESCO. The interior is bright even on cloudy days thanks to the white colored walls and many large windows. It is free to enter the church.
Very nice atmosphere, lot of things to see as well!
Saint Peter’s Church is near the town hall. It is renovated and looks nice and very big.
Nice Church to visit in Leuven. Located near Grote market and Town hall. Entry is free and bus stop is very near to the church.
Fell into Leuven and this beautiful, elegant church. So impressed and a lovely fresh and light take on religion rather than some of the heavy and ornate churches. So lovely. The carved pulpit is a work of Art in itself.
Just walk through the Main Street and it could be seen far away. Such a huge and grand church. It was beautiful.
Très belle à l'extérieur et à l'intérieur
I was truly impressed by Saint Peter’s Church in Leuven. Its stunning Gothic architecture, magnificent chandeliers, and the beautiful sculptures and paintings inside create a breathtaking atmosphere. A must-see for art and history lovers!
This imposing church is so impressive that even if wasnt at its prime locations, will be easy to find. Once entered you will be well rewarded seeing the inner beauty, you can wander into the peace and quiet admiring the ornate interior Definitely worth a visit
Really beautiful church & place to visit during a daytrip to Leuven.
