St Hubert's Basilica, Minor basilica in Saint-Hubert, Belgium.

St Hubert's Basilica is a church in Saint-Hubert that blends Gothic and Baroque styles. Inside, high vaulted ceilings rise above ornate stonework, creating the building's layered architectural character.

The monastery was founded in 687 and received Saint Hubert's remains in 825, making it a major pilgrimage site. These events shaped it into a significant religious center for the region.

The basilica carries the name of Saint Hubert, a figure deeply connected to hunting traditions in this region. This connection shows up in the artwork and religious objects you see inside.

The basilica opens daily to visitors and offers guided tours in multiple languages. Plan time to walk through at a relaxed pace and take in the architectural details throughout.

The monastery was once known for a specialized breeding program for hunting dogs that shaped modern Bloodhound breeds. This historical link between monastic life and practical hunting expertise made the place notable far beyond the region.
