På dette sted blev der i 1909 rejst en statue af humanisten, latinisten og historikeren Justus Lipsius (Overijse 1547 - Leuven 1606), som siden 1592 var professor ved universitetet i Leuven, til erstatning for en jernfontæne, der havde været her siden 1890. Den består af en høj sokkel i neoklassicistisk stil af grå sten, signeret "J. JOURDAIN - SCULPTEUR" og "H. VAES. V. CRETEN - ARCHITECTES", samt en bronzestatue støbt af Felix Van Aerschodt (se inskriptionen). Monumentet blev givet af den belgiske stat til byen i anledning af 75-års jubilæet for genoprettelsen (1834-1909) af universitetet for den katolske kirke i Leuven, se inskriptionen "JUSTO.LIPSIO/ IN.ALMA.UNIVERSITATE/ LOVANIENSI.PROFESSORI/ A.D.MCMIX.RESTITUAE/ UNIVERSITATIS.LXXV/ LEOPOLDO.II/ REGE. BELGARUM".
