Hidden pearl
Borgloon, a cozy town where past and present meet each other, where art and nature elegantly merge together, where blossoms transform into fruitgardens and where tourists will receive a warm welcome.
‘See Through’-church
When you visit Borgloon, you have to walk to the ‘see-through-church’: ‘Reading between the lines’. The church is a piece of art, made by the Belgian
Architects Gijs en van Vaerenbergh. The construction is 10 meters high and is made of 100 steel plates placed on top of each other.
