Religious Building

It was founded in 1128 in honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The first monks were sent from Saint Michael's Abbey.

With the erection of new dioceses (1559-60) in Belgium and the Netherlands, heavy burdens were cast on the abbey.

The abbey is also the site of a Leonardo da Vinci Museum, which contains a 16th century copy on canvas of Leonardo's Last Supper.
