St. Charles Borromeo's Church is the most splendid baroque church of the Low Countries. You recognize the hand of Rubens in both the architecture and the paintings and decorations of the church.

During your visit, you will discover the beautiful facade of St. Charles Borromeo's Church.

St. Charles Borromeo's Church is located on picturesque Conscienceplein. The church is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful baroque churches in Belgium. The magnificent facade of this former Jesuit church contains an enormous amount of symbols. In addition to religious elements, you can also find many theatrical components in it.

Inside, the church looks like a celestial ballroom. A system in the portico altar of the church allows the paintings to be changed three times a year.
Another highlight of the tour of St. Charles Borromeo's Church is Our Lady's Chapel.
