Notre-Dame-du-Sablon

Church Notre-Dame-du-Sablon – Originally a small chapel erected by the Guild of Crossbowmen in 1304 this Church went a long way to become one of the most impressive architectural achievements of Belgium. The Church that we know of today was finished in 1550. A magnificent restoration process went underway in the begin­ning of the 20C.
