Catedrala Sfinţii Michael şi Gudula
Cea mai mare şi mai frumoasă catedrală din Bruxelles, a fost construită pe parcursul a trei secole, începând cu 1225. Este un exemplu clasic de operă de artă în stil gotic brabantin. In interior sunt vitralii din sec. 16 şi un superb anvon baroc din 1699.
Catedrala este numită în cinstea Sf. Mihail, patronul oraşului, dar omagiază şi pe Sf. Gudula, o sfântă din sec. 8, ale cărei relicve se află în catedrală.

The St. Michael and Ste. Gudule Cathedral is a beautiful church in Gothic style from the 13th century, although there are parts of it that are as old as the 11th century. On first impression what it reminded me of was Notre-Dame de Paris and de Montreal and a little bit of Votivkirken in Vienna.
The Cathedral got its name from the patron saints of Brussels, St. Michael (the archangel) and Ste. Gudule (her relics are in the Cathedral), and it's used for Catholic services, royal marriages (like the Crown Prince Philippe and Princess Mathilda in the late 1990's) and state funerals.

Biserica Sf. Nicolae - este o mică biserică, veche de aproape 1000 de ani, cu o arhitectură mai bizară – axa sa principală fiind frântă. In interior , între alte opere se păstrează Fecioara cu copilul adormit, atribuită lui Rubens.
The Église St-Nicolas is a delightful little church behind the Bourse in Brusells. It is surrounded by fine old houses that seem to huddle under it. This small church is almost 1,000 years old, but little remains of the original structure. Its 11th-century Romanesque lines are hidden by a 14th-century Gothic facade and the repairs made after the French bombardment of 1695. A cannonball fired by the French in 1695 is still lodged in one of the pillars.The church holds a small painting by Rubens of The Virgin and Child
