Louvain-la-Neuve is a modern town (30 years old!) known for its unique, student-friendly urban design. The town center is accessible only to pedestrians and everything you need is walking distance from campus. The town is filled with narrow streets, little squares, staircases and beautiful buildings set back from the street add to its character. It is easy to understand why tourists and students enjoy their time in Louvain-la-Neuve! New programs!!!
