In a period before Belgium existed, Laurent-Benoît Dewez (1731-1812) was undoubtedly the most prominent architect in our region. As court architect to the Austrian governor Charles of Lorraine, he was known for his contributions to neoclassical architecture, a style popular during the late 18th century. More specifically, his oeuvre was dominated by the creation of a unitary ‘Eglise Belgique’.
Today, Dewez's vast oeuvre is still present in our (Leuven) streetscape. Yet only a select few still seem to know him....Laurent-Benoît Dewez: forgotten top architect in the service of Court, Elite and Church

For several years now, summer exhibitions have been held in Dendermonde's Church of Our Lady under the heading ‘IN SITU’. In 2024 it was Antoon Van Dyck's Calvary's turn, focusing on the restoration of this masterpiece. In 2025, it will be artist Harold Van de Perre's turn with his stained-glass window ‘Heavenly Jerusalem’ located in the right transept of the church.

In the exuberant abundance of creation, man and woman are called ‘the masters of all the animals that come and go on the earth’. Have the wolves, bears and other snakes been made docile by the saints, or have the saints themselves been softened by contact with lambs and doves? ‘Who's protecting whom?’ invites you to push open the door of Saint-Lambert church in Bouvignes once again. Inspired by the MPMM's ‘Avoir sa peau’ exhibition, ours is intended to be complementary and benevolent.In...Exhibition
