Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk

Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk is a church in Sint-Truiden built over several construction periods and displaying Gothic design elements. The building features pointed arches, vaulted ceilings, and stained glass windows that fill the interior with colored light.

The church developed over several centuries with major work taking place in the 14th and 16th centuries. In the 19th century it underwent renovations that reinforced its Gothic Revival character.

The church has long been the spiritual center of the town and continues to shape daily community life. People gather here for worship and celebrations, and its towers serve as a landmark that guides locals and visitors through the streets.

Visitors can enter the church during certain times and are guided through its interior spaces. It helps to check ahead for tour schedules or open visiting hours before planning your visit.

The building serves multiple roles at once in a way that is less commonly seen today. It functions simultaneously as a parish church, a protected monument, and a collegiate church, which shows how important it remains to the town.
