St. Loop's Church

The Church of St. Lupe, located in the center of the Belgian city of Namur, was built at the Jesuit College in the middle of the XVII century. The building in the style of the South Dutch Baroque was built for 20 years, from 1620 to 1645, according to the project of the famous architect Pierre Juysens. The three-nave church with six spans, choirs and asps was built from local sandstone. On the top of the facade you can see the traditional Jesuit sign – the monogram of Jesus Christ IHS.

All those entering the church of St. Lupe are impressed by the luxurious interior: paintings made by one of the students of the famous Rubens, decoration of red and black marble, ornate wooden confessional. Currently, the church is active, concerts and exhibitions are often held here.
