Liers Begijnhof, Medieval religious complex in Lier, Belgium.
The Liers Begijnhof features residential buildings arranged in a geometric pattern around a central courtyard, with narrow cobblestone streets connecting different sections.
The Beguinage provided independent living spaces for religious women during the Middle Ages, allowing them to maintain their autonomy while following spiritual practices.
The architectural elements of Liers Begijnhof represent traditional Flemish construction techniques, with brick facades and pitched roofs defining the residential structures.
Visitors can access guided tours of the Beguinage museum daily from 10:00 to 17:00, with detailed information about the lives of former residents.
The site maintains its original function as a residential area while simultaneously operating as a museum, preserving centuries-old traditions in a modern context.
