Description

The first written texts on Sainte-Catherine chapel in Brussels date back from 1200. The chapel was then attached to the city wall, which remains are still preserved. The present church was redesigned in 1854-59 by Joseph Polaert in a variety of styles, mixing the Romanesque, the Gothic and the Renaissance styles.
The first ambition of the painter Van Gogh was to become a Protestant pastor. After the failure of his studies in the Netherlands, he followed here for training before he joined the preacher somewhere else and decided to to devote himself entirely to his artistic destiny.
