Beguines were members of a sisterhood founded in 1245. They lived and dressed as nuns but did not take the vows and were able to leave the sisterhood if they so wished.
This gate was built in 1776
The last Beguines left in 1927. It now a convent for the Benedictine nuns.
This is probably the quietest place in the city
So quaint and peaceful
This church was built in 1602
