Collegiate church of Our Lady and Domitian of Huy

The Collegiate Church of Our Lady and Saint Domitian of Huy is a church in the Belgian city of Huy. It is a collegiate church dedicated to Our Lady and Saint Domitian of Huy, located on the right bank of the Meuse. In August 1377, Prince-Bishop Jan van Arkel consecrated the choir while work continued on the transept and the western tower. The Romanesque church gradually disappeared, and the crypt was filled in but rediscovered in 1906. The painting on the vault mentions the year 1523, supplemented by the word "Rode" between two crossed swords. This refers to the heroic defense of the city of Rhodes by Christian knights, who ultimately had to leave the city and the island on January 1, 1523. Painted vaults are a characteristic of more Gothic churches in the Meuse Valley.
