Heritage between abbey and basilica
Today, a photogenic ruin remains of the medieval residence of the Lords of Grimbergen. However, the abbey church of Grimbergen is still standing, and how! It is one of the finest baroque churches in the Low Countries. The abbey itself has been there since 1128. Step into the abbey brewery and discover the story behind the famous Grimbergen beer.
In the MOT - Museum of Old Techniques - turn centuries-old water mills, bring crafts to life and learn how to bake your own bread. Then in people's observatory MIRA you can look at the stars through powerful telescopes.
"Baroque, beer, old crafts and stargazing."
