历史

In 1651 the father Carmelites bought the 'leeuwenmeers'. This area used to be part of the palace of Charles V. For over 15 years the fathers lived in a small building, where the emperor used to keep his lions he won form the battle of Tunis. Plans were made, funds were prayed for and found. In the coming years the monastary was built in different fases. The south- and westwing (1664-1668), with a temporary church. Later the church would be transformed to a magnificent library with over 60.000 books. The northwing (1667), the impressive Carmelite church (1703-1714 - regency style) and a crypt were finally added to the domain. After a peaceful time, the French occupied the monastery (1797 - 1801). The following years the buldings were rented out, until in 1845 the monastery was once more occupied by its rightfull inhabitants: the Carmelite fathers, who are still inhabitants of the domain. In 19661 the Carmelite church became a classified momument and got completely renovetad.
