Architecture & urban renewal
Architectural masterpieces.
Contemporary architecture
Visit the renovated neighbourhoods in the city centre near the railway station or in Vaartkom. Today’s finest architects take up the challenge of keeping the historical city liveable in the 21st century by means of modern modifications. The provincial building, the De Lijn bus station, De Balk van Beel and M-Museum Leuven are only a few examples of award-winning architecture.

Bulding the City: Leuven in Motion
Walk from the city centre via lesser-known roads and more hidden paths through the new developments in the city: via ‘s Hertogeneiland, the Barbarahof and the new Janseniuspark to the old hospital sites, along parts of the first ring wall (12th century) and the – hardly known – neighbourhood of the Pereboomstraat and the Penitentienenstraat, you will make your way towards the Vaartkom together with our guide. New and old meet all the time.A surprising walk for those who want to see the latest developments.
