St Bavo’s Cathedral

Belgium

Nestled in the heart of Ghent, this architectural masterpiece is a feast for the senses. With its towering Gothic spires, it stands as a testament to centuries of artistry. Inside, the opulent Baroque high altar, stunning stained glass windows, and an array of intricate sculptures await discovery. But the pièce de résistance is undoubtedly the "Adoration of the Mystic Lamb," a 15th-century polyptych by the Van Eyck brothers, often hailed as one of the pinnacle works of Northern Renaissance art. Whether you're an art enthusiast or a history buff, this cathedral offers a glimpse into Belgium’s rich cultural tapestry.
