When the diocese of Antwerp was founded in 1559, the church was elevated to a cathedral. The current interior shows traces of different episodes in its history: Baroque altarpieces, neo-Gothic chapels, a wealth of statues, paintings and other works of art are impressive. Especially the Descent from the Cross by Rubens attracts many tourists. The cathedral has been restored both inside and out over the past 50 years. The visitor can now enjoy a beautiful church in very good condition.
