Vlierbeek Abbey, founded in 1127 and later elevated to a cathedral upon the establishment of the diocese of Antwerp in 1559, shows traces of its rich history. The interior combines Baroque altarpieces and neo-Gothic chapels, including Rubens' famous Descent from the Cross. Restorations have been carried out both inside and outside over the past 50 years, so the church is now in excellent condition. The neoclassical design of the abbey church by architect Dewez and the surrounding buildings are also worth a visit.
