Sint-Baafsabdij

Description

Fra Sint-Baafsdorp fra Van Eyks tid er næsten ikke en eneste sten tilbage. Det 7. århundredes sted havde også i det 15. århundrede et kloster med en imponerende kirke, var delvist omgivet af vand, delvist befæstet med solide mure og havde to stenede adgangsportaler af imponerende størrelse. En dårligtsindet kejser Karl lod i det 16. århundrede sin nedrivningshammer gå løs, gjorde næsten hele stedet til jorden, og bygge en tvangsborg her, hvor klosteret som en skygge af sin fortid intra muros blev sendt til glemsel. Næsten det eneste, der i dag er tilbage fra klosteret, findes her bag de århundreder gamle mure i Spanjaardsgade. Desværre er de mure i presserende behov for restaurering og er på nogle steder afskærmet. Klosteret er åbent for besøg hver weekend fra fredag til søndag, mellem kl. 14 og 18, fra påskeweekend til november.
