Sint-Pietersabdij
There has been an abbey on this site since the 7th century, and during the Middle Ages this was one of the richest and most important in Flanders. Most of the Baroque buildings you see today were built in the 17th century, however, and now house the St. Peter's Abbey Arts Center. You can walk around the abbey, the ruined gardens, and the cellars, where there is an exhibition about the monks, or watch the "movie guide" (€4), which explores the building's checkered history. There are also changing exhibitions upstairs ranging from painting to photography.
