About this walking route

Explore the beautiful city center of Leuven at your own pace. This self-guided audio tour will take you to all the well-known spots and undiscovered gems of Leuven. The audio guide will tell you all the historical and current ins and outs of each place.

Among the sights is the St. Peter's Church, which was once nearly the tallest building in the world, and the historic town hall of Leuven with its 236 statues. Explore parts of Belgium's largest and oldest university, KU Leuven, including the University Hall. As you walk through the city center, you'll pass by the St. Anthony's Chapel where Father Damien (one of the ten most famous Belgians of all time) is buried, and the impressive St. Michael's Church. Stroll through Leuven's Oude Markt, known as the 'longest bar in Europe.' Visit Brewery Domus, where traditional Belgian beer is brewed. Discover a giant insect sculpture impaled on a 25-meter pole and learn about the university library that has been burned down and rebuilt twice.
