Another must visit
Splendid. You must stop here when in Antwerp. Beautiful inside and out. Great value, wonderful view. Touristy around the entrance, but go a bit beyond and enjoy a lovely catherderal. Watch out for pick pockets on the street!

Amazing!
What struck me, is that the Cathedral has been in repairs for many years, almost "peace meal". It was an enourmous effort to tackle the "old Lady" and spruce her up. It amazes me that the art work remained in perfect shape. The pulpit's unbelievable carving left me speechless. Above all, I was doing some geneology work and low and behold, two of my ancesters were buried inside the Cathedral. Too bad that the serenity of yester year was gone. Flashlights kept glaring, tourists (like me) tried to identify the valuable and unbelievable art treasures, which were relocated from their original locations.

A must
It is one of the most elegant cathedrals in the world and you can enjoy two major works by Rubens.
