Abadía de Vlierbeek

Around 1125, benedictine monks founded the abbey of Vlierbeek. In 1572, it was completely burned down by the troops of the Prince of Orange, but was subsequently rebuilt. Later, the abbey underwent further changes: some buildings were partially demolished and partially converted into private residences. The current abbey church, which is also a parish church, dates back to the 18th century and contains numerous artworks that survived the abbey's long history. In the cemetery lie several prominent Leuven professors buried.
