📖

Full description

The Church of Our Lady of Finistère is an 18th-century church with a neoclassical exterior and a baroque interior. Reviewers single out the 1758 altarpiece, whose giant wooden canopy is held up by flying cherubs, along with the painted doors and the old statue of Our Lady of Good Success, a relic brought to Brussels in 1625.

It remains a place of worship with a quiet, spiritual atmosphere. Opening hours run through the day, and a short visit of about 15 minutes covers the interior comfortably.

Reviews

Very impressive neoclassical church with the influence of Brabantine Baroque style. The statue Notre Dame du Bon Succès (Our Lady of Good Fortune) is a very old relic which came to Brussels since 1625. It is said to bring good luck in games of chance and in examinations
