    Eglise Sainte Marie-Madeleine (Church of St. Mary Magdalene) is a historic church located along Rue de la Madeleine just outside the Brussels Central train station and perhaps 200 metres from the Grand Place. This is another Brabant Gothic style church, featuring a Baroque period wing that was built after the French bombardment in 1695 which caused significant damage to the building structure at that time. The church is nice to view from outside but less impressive compared to the larger Brabantine Gothic churches in the city centre. The interior of the Church of St. Mary Magdalene is small and subtle. The stained-glass windows are modern in design, contrasting nicely to the Gothic features of the building interior. They date from the 1950s when the church was last restored. Overall, we enjoyed our brief 10 minute visit to Eglise Sainte Marie-Madeleine. Its worth a quick stop and look around if you find yourself in this area of Brussels with time to spare and interest in such sightseeing.

    A beautiful oasis in the city. Great to see safe space being made available for sheltering homeless people on the Chapel grounds too.

    A superb piece of Brabant gothic architecture. The interior underwent massive remodeling, though some original tombstones remain in the entrance - probably all that remains of a Medieval burial vault?
