This is a very caring church and lovely people working here. In this church there are always a lot…read moreof people coming here on a Sunday to pray. Parents always take their children too, who always get a smile on their faces from the people in the church. The International Baptist Church is very easy accessible as it is in a friendly and caring neighbourhood. There are also a lot of parking spaces available for those who come here by car. It is not the biggest church I would say, but it is well worth while giving this church a visit if you are in the local area.

The best thing about this place is the balcony/terrace on the first floor (second floor for Americans). However it was closed as its winter now. Service was a little slow. Food tasted really well. I much more than a café. Restaurant quality food (and all day long!). WiFi is free

It isn't advised for people who are not physically fit enough to climb almost 300 stairs with little to no room to stop. Hard to believe that you are on top of such an old tower. Views are spectacular.

What an awe-inspiring church. The altar itself is something to marvel at alone…read more St. Carolus Borromeus kerk (church) seems to have had several incidents with fire and the elements which stole 39 irreplaceable ceiling paintings, however the ceiling painting toward the altar was spared and gives a glimpse of what once was. The altar alone could be studied for hours. It's ornate and finely detailed with baroque artwork and architecture that is common to a lot of Belgium's churches and buildings. The painting at the altar also is capable of being changed using the original mechanism set in place. St. Carolus is hard to miss if you walk up onto it as the outside of the church is very ornate, as well, utilizing the gold embellishments and certainly a nice stop to study art history and architecture. The inside of this church has been one of my more favorite to have visited thus far. When we visited, the church interior was under construction which seems to be a trend for a lot of churches and cathedrals in the area, but it was nice to just get out of the cold rain and look at beautiful architecture.
