Saint Nicholas Church, Ghent

Cataloniestraat, Ghent, Belgium

“A star before Belfry was built”

Gothic church, recently restored, made of local greystone was the most dominant and important until the belfry was built. Shelde Gothic is a Flemish architectural style that mixes surviving Romanesque elements with already ruling Gothic. This impressive 13- to 15-century church holds one of "three towers of Ghent", actually the first one of them that was erected.
