Discover Leuven

Leuven is the ideal place if you are looking to discover some old monuments but also very trendy places. At less than half an hour from Brussels, this youthful town is home to one of Europe’s oldest universities. History is present on every street corner. The town hall is Leuven’s pride and joy. Moreover, it’s one of the best-known Gothic town halls worldwide. It took three architects and thirty years to build it. Leuven’s ‘Hall of Fame’ features 236 statues, which were only added to the façade after 1850. In 1708, Sébastien Artois became head brewer at the Den Hoornbrewery,a brewery established in 1366. Artois purchased the brewery in 1717 and renamed it Brouwerij Artois. In 1926, the Brewery launched Stella as a Christmas beer, named after the Christmas star.
