'Past and future'

To mark its 600th anniversary, from 4 October to 30 November 2025, the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament is organising a small exhibition of exceptional works of art from our patrimony: '600 years of the Chapel: past and future'. On display in the cathedral's narthex are rare pieces, including the 'Rubens Robes' and the Golden Book. Visitors can listen to information on site via QR codes.

The grand opening of the expo will take place on Friday 3 October 2025 at 8 pm, with free admission via the main entrance on the Handschoenmarkt. After various reflections, interspersed with music, everyone is welcome to a reception at bistro De Plek.

Please note! To participate in this evening, you must register via info@venerabel.be

Entry to the expo is free for residents of the province of Antwerp. Other visitors pay the regular entrance fee for the cathedral.
