Congress Venue

The ‘Oud Sint-Jan’ Congress Centre is a former medieval hospital that dates back to
the 11th century and was in function treating patients until 1978.

The old hospital wards have been transformed into a state-of-the-art congress centre
with spacious congress rooms and all modern facilities.

The venue also hosts the Memling Museum with the hospital museum and the
magnificent ‘Old Pharmacy’ with devices used in the 14th century.

The ‘Oud Sint-Jan’ Congress Centre is located in the medieval quarter of the city
and within walking distance from the hotels.
