Normally, we don’t get out of our way to spoil you... but no imposing entrance or red carpet awaits you here.

Behind the centuries-old-frontage on Oude Houtlei you find an ancient monastery: PoortAckere - an oasis of peace, hidden away from the bustle of the city. Once inside you find yourself in a former nunnery whose history dates back to 1278. The building that turned its back on the world for so many centuries now reveals its secrets to a few favored guests. The atmosphere is serene and restful, as befits an age-old neo-gothic building.

Yet PoortAckere retains its unique character, as a medieval monastery with its own history. An ideal location to absorb what Four Pees and its vendors have coming up for you.
