A bit of history

In 1962, the dilapidated beguinage site was transferred to KU Leuven. Under the direction of Professor Raymond M. Lemaire, restoration began in 1963 and was completed in 1990. A passionate art historian, Lemaire received the gold medal from the Académie d'Architecture de France in 1970 and was an influential figure in monument restoration.
