The St. Bavo Cathedral(St. Baafs Cathedral) can be dated back to 942. Traces from a Romanesque church that stood here can still be seen in the crypt today. Between the 14th and the 16th century the cathedral was permanently rebuilt in Gothic style.The cathedral houses many art treasures, the most important is the painting made by Hubert and Jan van Eyck called "the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb"(last photo). The St. Bavo Cathedral in Ghent is situated opposite the Belfry Tower.
