Great Beguinage, Sint-Amandsberg

The Great Beguinage of Sint-Amandsberg (Dutch: Groot Begijnhof van Sint-Amandsberg) is an eight-hectare beguinage in the Sint-Amandsberg suburb, just outside the centre of Ghent, Belgium. It was built between 1873 and 1874 on the abandonment of the Old St. Elizabeth Beguinage in the city centre. There is also a third beguinage in Ghent, that of Our-Lady Ter Hooyen.
