Tour of Antwerp: along all the highlights

Your city walk through Antwerp starts at Leonardo Hotel Antwerp. Antwerp is a city where you experience Flemish geniality, a vibrant city life and a rich history. The beautiful old center is also called the Manhattan of the sixteenth century. At St. Andrew's Church, St. Paul's Church and the Cathedral of Our Lady, you follow in the footsteps of Rubens, the baroque artist of the Low Countries. This Antwerp native was an incredibly successful painter from 1600-1640. Step inside and discover his beautiful works of art. Antwerp City Hall is one of the first examples of the Renaissance in the Low Countries. Further on you walk past the Hof van Liere, a 16th-century city palace with courtyard, gardens and galleries. It now houses the university. The Capuchin Monastery of Saint Francis dates from the nineteenth century.
