La Pairelle, Jesuit retreat center in Wépion, Belgium

The La Pairelle spiritual center sits on a hill overlooking the Meuse River, featuring a Gothic Revival chapel and extensive grounds for contemplation.

Built in 1932 as Institut Saint-Bellarmin, the center initially served as a residence for Jesuit trainees studying at the University of Namur.

The center provides programs based on Ignatian spirituality, offering individual retreats and reflection days guided by Jesuit principles.

Visitors can participate in various spiritual activities throughout the year, with accommodation options available for both group and individual retreats.

Sisters of Saint Andrew joined the center in 1999, making it the only French-speaking Jesuit retreat facility in Belgium with this dual religious presence.
