Interesting facts about this location

Drongen

Drongen is a submunicipality of the city of Ghent. Drongen is divided into three parishes: Drongen, Luchteren and Baarle. Drongen is known for its early medieval monastery, founded in the 7th century by the monk Amandus, the Missionary of the Leie and Schelde. Destroyed by the Normans in 853, the monastery was rebuilt by the counts of Flanders. The monastery was the victim of the religious wars following the Reformation, and in 1578 it was once again destroyed by Calvinists.
