Full text | 310 Route 24, AERSCHOT. From Louvain Monvaicu, a small town built on a mountain on the plan of a regular heptagon at the commencement of the XVII cent.; the spot where it stands has since the XII cent. been celebrated for a miraculous image of the B. V., to which numerous pilgrims re- sorted from all parts; the sanctuary in which it was kept was formerly but a small chapel. During the siege of Bois-le-Duc by the Dutch in 1601, Albert and Isabella made a vow to visit the shrine of Montaigu if they succeeded in raising the siege; the Mar- quis of Spinola having compelled the Dutch to- retreat, they ful- filled their vow and afterwards rebuilt the Church which was de- signed by W. Coberger, 1609-27; it is richly adorned and contains several paintings repr. events in the life of the B. V., by T. Van Loon, and carvings by R. Collyns De Nole. Sicuem, once an important town, now a straggling village on l. of the road, has a large 3 aisled cruciform Church with apsidal chancel, built of a ferrugineous stone with exception of S. aisle, which is of white stone alternating with rows of bricks 7 deep. The E. window contains some stained glass of XIV cent. repr. the Crucifixion; here are also 2 Tys., one repr. scenes from the life of a Saint, and the other the Crucifixion, Descent from Cross and Descent into. Limbo. Outside the village is the ruined keep of an old Castle. Not far from Sichem, on 1. of road, and almost on the border of the province of Antwerp, is the Premonstratensian Abbey of Averbove, founded in 1130; the Church, a cruciform building lined with marble and stucco, was erected by L. Faydherbe, 1664-70; the stalls are finely carved with. figures of SS. Norbert, Frederic, Herman, Joseph and others of the order and angels placed alternately. In the Sacristy are a reliquary cross and a pec- toral cross of XIV cent. and some vestments of the XV cent. Disst. Inns: A. du Coq; — H. du Sauvage ; — both on the Grande Place. 7873 Inhahbs. This town, seated on the R. De- met, has since the separation of Belgium and Holland become an important place and been strongly fortified. In the XV cent. it belonged to the Princes of Orange-Nassau. The Church of Norre Dame, 1253, is a 3 aisled buildiog with pentagonal apse; the aisles and portal were rebuilt in the XV cent., and the vaulting of the nave substituted for the anct. timber roof about 30 years ago: the tracery of the window of N. trans. is remarkable. S. Sutrice, founded before 1163 was rebuilt 1419-56 from the designs of S. Van Vorst who was succeeded by M. De Layens ; the Tower was completed c. 1490. It is a 8 aisled cruciform building with triforium and clerestory ; the pillars have no capi- |- tals: the Choir is remarkable for its exterior decoration which |
