A beautiful piece of
history

Why locals love it

This is, to us Antwerpians, what the statue of liberty is for New Yorkers. If you ask a local what is the most Antwerp-thing they know, I bet most of them will say the Cathedral. With beautiful paintings of the famous Peter Paul Rubens this Gothic Church stands proud in our skyline since 1352.

Why you should visit it

Antwerpians are very proud of their city and if you would tell them you wouldn't be interested in the Cathedral they will be shocked. I'm not saying you have to do it. But you won't experience Antwerp's true beauty if you have not visited the Cathedral.

Have a comment or question?

What can I say... It's hard to visit Antwerp and not see the cathedral ;-)
