Lonely Planet review for St-Jacobskerk

The final stop on the Rubens trail (for Rubens himself) is his resting place, this Brabantine-Gothic church built between 1491 and 1656. Rubens painted Our Lady Surrounded by Saints specifically for his tomb – look closely and you’ll see it’s actually a family portrait, starring Rubens as St George and his wives and father.
