The Beguinage

This former beguinage in the heart of the city center was once home to a community of lay religious women, called beguines, who lived together without taking formal vows. These days, the peaceful grounds are home to the Sisters of the St. Benedict Order.

It’s especially quiet in the winter months, but also stunning in spring, when daffodils bloom across the grounds.
