Dendermonde Abbey, Benedictine monastery in Dendermonde, Belgium
The monastery comprises a church built in 1902 and several conventual buildings constructed in Flemish Neo-Renaissance style between 1919 and 1924.
Founded in 1837 by Dom Veremundus D'Haens, the abbey continued the traditions of Affligem Abbey after its community dispersed in 1796.
The monastery library maintains a collection of religious manuscripts and documents that detail Belgian monastic practices through the centuries.
The abbey church remains accessible for public worship, while the monastery buildings received protected monument status in 2003.
A fire in 1914 destroyed most original buildings except the church, leading to complete reconstruction of the monastery complex.
