The inside story
Towering over the historic centre this 11-century abbey used to be an important milestone for travelling pilgrims before heading to Santiago de Compostela. With its medieval stone-cut facades and two Gothic spires welcoming visitors at its entrance, you can see why this church stands out from the rest.
Step into another world as you walk through the chapel's doors. Whitewashed columns, Baroque-style ornaments, Flemish paintings and the Van Peteghem Organ are just some of the artistic elements that embellish the interior. Aside from its religious prestige, St Jacob's Church and its nearby square offer a plethora of cultural events and annual festivities, meaning there's something to do all year round.
