St Peter’s Abbey and garden
Walk the surviving rooms of St Peter’s Abbey, then step into its sheltered garden of herbs, fruit trees and grapevines. The free corridors and courtyard link the former monastery to a garden reconstructed from historical models.
Why go
St Peter’s Abbey connects Ghent’s earliest monastic history with a calm garden of herbs, fruit trees and grapevines. Walk through the surviving abbey spaces, then notice how the reconstructed garden echoes older planting traditions. The shift from stone corridors to greenery makes the site both a historical landmark and a place to slow down within the southern cultural district.
