The beguinage dates from the 13th century. During its heyday in the 17th century, about 360 beguines lived there.
You will find a network of streets, squares, gardens and parks, with dozens of houses and convents in traditional sandstone, as well as the Church of St. John the Baptist. Today it houses students, foreign visiting professors and staff of one of the oldest Catholic universities in Europe.

In 1998, the Groot Begijnhof, together with 12 other Flemish beguinages, was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You can visit it for free.
