Sint-Ursula-Instituut, Protected monument and educational institute in Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-Waver, Belgium.

The Sint-Ursula-Instituut features a variety of architectural designs including neoclassical, neo-Gothic, neo-Romanesque, and Art Nouveau elements throughout its building complex.

Founded in 1841 by Pastor Joannes Baptista Verheyden, the institute started as Gethsemani and expanded with a kindergarten in 1861 and a chapel in 1862.

The Winter Garden, constructed in 1900, incorporates Art Nouveau design with stained glass elements and served as a reception area for visiting families.

Starting 2024-2025, students will use iPads as digital learning tools both at school and at home, while mobile phones are prohibited during lessons.

The surrounding park contains garden follies and an English-style landscape designed by horticulturist Felix Brouwers between 1910 and 1911.
