One of the finest churches in the Netherlands, the cathedral took from 1336 to 1550 to complete. The interior has late-Gothic stained-glass windows, an organ case from the 17th century and an impressive statue of the Madonna, which in May is the focus of pilgrimages. Take the opportunity to climb the 73m tower, with its carillon and great views.
Take the time to loop around its exterior: notice the contrast between the red-brick tower and the ornate stone buttresses. Look for a score of new angel statues added during a recent massive restoration; one is holding a cell phone.
