Church of Our Lady of the Chapel, Gothic Catholic church in Marolles district, Brussels, Belgium.

The Church of Our Lady of the Chapel features a combination of Romanesque elements and Gothic design, with a prominent bell tower from the 18th century.

Established in 1210, the church underwent reconstruction after a fire in 1405, leading to the incorporation of the Brabantine Gothic style in its nave structure.

The church maintains a strong connection to the Polish Catholic community in Brussels, with a dedicated chapel containing the Our Lady of Częstochowa icon.

Located near Brussels-Chapel railway station, the church welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 to 18:30 on weekdays and 10:00 to 18:30 on weekends.

A modest funerary monument inside the church marks the burial site of the renowned artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder from 1569.
