Sint-Truiden’s spacious market square has often been touted as the second-largest in Belgium after Sint-Niklaas. After a bit of research by the long-running TV show Vlaanderen Vakantieland (Flanders Holiday Country) it was discovered that this is actually the fifth largest in Belgium. No matter, because Grote Markt is enormous by any measure and ma...
One of Grote Markt’s trio of towers rises from the city hall and belongs to a UNESCO World Heritage Site comprising 56 belfries across Belgium and Northern France. The tower, with Baroque modifications, is actually part of the 13th-century cloth hall later annexed by the city hall. The lower portion goes right back to the 13th century, while the up...
The Gothic and neo-Gothic church opposite the Stadhuis Grote Markt has been around since the 1300s but is actually the third church to have stood at this spot. The entire western facade and the tower that crowns it is recent, erected in the middle of the 19th century after the previous tower collapsed in 1668. Within there’s a lot of superb polychr...

The Sint-Agnesbegijnhof is within walking distance north-east of the city centre on land donated to Sint-Truiden’s dispersed beguines in the mid-13th century by Abbot Willem van Rijkel. Durin...
By the 11th century the abbey founded by Saint Trudo was attracting so many pilgrims and was such a lucrative source of wealth for the town that a magnificent new Romanesque church was built. Raised in the second half of the 11th century, this had proportions that were almost unimaginable at the time, at 100 metres long and 26 metres wide. It was d...
Behind the tower, on the grassy expanse where the church’s nave and choir used to be you can descend to the subterranean chapel also built in the 11th century. While preserving the stonework, the space has been updated recently with a film investigating the origins of the city and the abbey, as well as fresh discoveries of architectural elements li...
In the middle of the 19th century the esteemed architect Louis Roelandt was commissioned to design a seminary on the site of abbey. The Neoclassical seminary church was lost in a fire in 1975, but a few buildings from the complex survived, like this unique auditorium. With tiered wooden stalls, the Academiezaal is on an octagonal plan, under a dome...
The Franciscan order first settled in Sint-Truiden around 1226, and the Early Gothic church they built in the 13th century was replaced with a Baroque edifice in the 1730s. The attached monastery was dissolved in 1797, but the order was able to buy a lot of the inventory that was sold off and the monastery was later revived, continuing until as rec...
The village of Kerkom-bij-Sint-Truiden in the south of the city has a brewery in business since 1878 on a quaint farmyard. Brouwerij Kerkom produces the Bink beer brand, which has a big range, counting a dubbel, two tripels, a blond, bruin, an amber, an IPA and two dark winter beers, to name a few. Out in the countryside, a short ride from the city...
