When you visit Antwerp, you must discover this hidden gem.<br />

The entrance is at the Veemarkt in Antwerp and the dark corridor<br />

confuses you for a while. You soon discover an intriguing<br />

sculpture garden on the right, but the real surprise comes<br />

when you walk into the church at the end of the corridor. Dozens<br />

of paintings and sculptures will meet you. Original masterpieces<br />

by Rubens, Van Dyck, Jordaens, Quellinus, you don‘t<br />

know where to look first. And for free too, every day from 2 pm<br />

to 5 pm. Welcome!<br />

Address:<br />

Sint-Paulusstraat 22, 2000 Antwerpen (Workshops)<br />

Veemarkt, 2000 Antwerpen (Celebration Concert)<br />

The Sint-Jacobskerk is an exceptional church in which its rich<br />

history is reflected. An extraordinary variety in the building’s<br />

elements, such as pillars, arches and capitals, also exposes<br />

a particular construction history. With its heterogeneous character,<br />

the Sint-Jacobskerk steps forward as a unique witness<br />

of almost 900 years of ecclesiastical architecture in Ghent.<br />

The Sint-Jacobskerk will be the location for several Friendship<br />

Concerts.<br />
