I like to continue the Mechelen, Belgium tour with this one.

Depicted is the 'Sint-Pieters-en-Pauluskerk', a baroque church on the Veemarkt in Mechelen, built between 1669 and 1694 according to plans by the Jesuit Antoon Losson.

The entrails of Margaret of Austria, Duchess of Savoy are buried in the choir.

The church underwent a thorough interior restoration at the beginning of the 21st century.

Wonderful clear colours and clarity and an invitation to walk the cobbled road :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

The clarity of lines and colors are excellent, Mr C.

I am always amazed at the cleanliness I see in your city photos. And, no trash containers in view, either.

How spectacular - That church is certainly the focal point in Mechelen - I would imagine the inside is just as beautiful since the interior restoration took place - Wonderfully Captured Cornelius!!!!!!!!

Nice and clear shot, Cornelius. I love this beautiful architecture, too.
