Beguinage of Courtrai

Calm and relaxing place to walk around. It also looks like that the atmosphere had been same during medieval times, like everyone lived here in peace. A cool, relaxed neighborhood 😇

Lovely place with a tiny and free interactive museum. Great for kids to run around freely.
There is also a cosy and quality restaurant/bar.

Very calm and beautiful place.
Can learn about the religious history of the place.

Rather impressive collection of historic buildings In pristine condition. 13th Century

Beautiful beguinage with a small but nice (free) museum. You need to visit it if you go to kortrijk.

A must see if you're visiting on foot. Very cosy, almost fairytale-like.

Amazing place with 13. century history roots.

This is a magical place! Walking around the houses in those narrow streets really takes you back in time. The place is well kept, and it feels like an open-air museum. If you have time for one thing in Courtrai, this is it!

Probably one of the most beautiful ever seen in Belgium.

Beautiful beguinage. Nice cafe inside with variety of fancy teas and snacks.
Can see how one of the houses was historically decorated, can visit the chapel/church and there is a free interactive exhibit on beguinage heritage.

Nice place to visit

Nice place with a Cafe inside for enjoying better the visit

This has to be the best surprise i found, while walking in the streets of kortjijk. Intriguing place where people of church used to reside, sucha quiet, quaint place.. but there was a church which kinda spooked me out .. maybe I was wrong.. but overall very pretty &must see

Beautiful place, must have a look at !
Super clean, nice feeling and the museum is interesting (and free)

Nice little place to come to when the sun is out

Very pretty, historic part of Kortrijk.
Even some eateries tucked away in cosy corners.

One of the most beautiful beguinages of Belgium. It's quite small in relation to others, but very well maintained.

Being with local is always fun and more informative, all the more when you are visiting a city in Belgium which is relatively not a touristic city and on radar of international travellers. Well I was touring Kortrijk in a business tour along with my local contact. Due to cancelled meeting had some free time to go around Kortrijk. Beguinage being one of the oldest living structure is of special reference. This used to be a place where war widows and women who wanted to lead a life without a partner lived. It is nicely built with similar villas all around a Courtyard. The women occupants of beguinage were supposed to live a religious lifestyle and often involved in activities to support their living. Now a days there is a cafe, art gallery and a museum on site. Renovations were going on at the time of visit.

beyond expection. a must-go. the receptionist is a very nice elder lady, she provided me with a lot of useful information.

Good place. Silent streets, causy restaurants. The best bar Tamplier :)
