Saint Michael`s Church of Ghent

On the banks of the River Lys, near Saint Michael`s Bridge, in the very heart of medieval Ghent, rises Saint Michael`s Church (Sint-Michielskerk) – one of the most harmonious and atmospheric churches in the city. Unlike its majestic neighbors – Saint Bavo`s Cathedral and Saint Nicholas` Church – this church often remains in the shadows, but it is here that one can truly appreciate the beauty of Ghent`s medieval architecture: the silence, the light streaming through the high Gothic windows.
