Initially a chapel, St Giles' was upgraded to a parish church in 1258.
Its interior is in a Gothic revival style and has many superb paintings.
In and around the church countless famous painters were buried,
such as Hans Memling (d.1494), in his time the best paid painter,
Lanceloot Blondeel (d.1561) and Pieter Pourbus (d.1564)
