About this event
Embark on the Ostend Audio Tour: Maritime Marvels and Sacred Streets
A sea wind howls through Ostend’s old streets while shadowed towers and solemn spires stand guard over buried secrets. Behind their stone faces lies a city map etched with tales no guidebook reveals.
This self-guided audio tour leads you along winding alleys and grand boulevards, peeling back time to reveal hidden dramas and silent triumphs most visitors never notice.
What rage once echoed inside Capuchin Church as a forbidden ceremony was discovered? Which lost heir vanished beneath the gilded arches of St. Peter and Paul's Church with only the moon as witness? Why did the English Church become entangled in a scandal involving coded messages and smuggled relics?
Trace footsteps through echoes of rebellion, faded candles, and whispered confessions. See Ostend as a living stage where danger and devotion danced within sight of the wild North Sea.
The city’s secrets wait in their shadows. Begin the journey and let Ostend speak.
