Sint-Benedictuskerk - Lillo (Antwerpen), Belgium - This Old Church on Waymarking.com

[BE] "De kerk ontleent haar huidige betekenis vooral aan haar ligging, ver van het centrum van Antwerpen, midden in het havengebied. Lillo is een oud garnizoensstadje en vissershaventje. In 1883 wordt de oude garnizoenskerk vervangen door deze neogotische zaalkerk (architect L. Gife) met acht traveeën en een vooruitspringende westtoren. Het interieur dateert uit de bouwperiode."

In 1883, the old garrison church was replaced by this neogotic hall church (architect L. Gife) with eight traverses and a protruding west tower. The interior dates from the construction period."
