The Tomb of Damien

Damien's Tomb in St Antonius chapel in Leuven is a place of silence and prayer. People from all over the world come there to fall silent, to be inspired and pray for support. In the St Antonius chapel, you follow the 'Way of Damien'. Seven meter-high panels with pictures and quotes from Damien's letters depict decisive moments in his life. Stop by Damien's grave, walk his path and follow in his footsteps.
