You're standing on the Grote Markt, Leuven's main square, in front of Saint Peter's Church. Right across from you is the Town Hall. The two belong together. They were built at the same time, and in the early decades even by the same master builders: Sulpitius van Vorst, Jan II Keldermans and Matheus de Layens. This is Brabantine Gothic at its finest.
