Mechelen, Grote Markt with Town Hall

Why you'll love Leuven, Belgium

Leuven is known for being a true student city, with its dynamic student population bringing this ancient city to life during the academic year and beyond. Situated east of Brussels, Leuven is known for its breweries, the late Gothic St. Peter’s Church that houses the painting “Last Supper,” and the Oude Markt – a long square lined with bars and cafes. It’s a perfect destination if you prefer to live somewhere historical and quaint while still having everything you need right at your fingertips.
