Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Portal building of the Abbey of O-L-V of Nazareth.

(Protected as an urban landscape K.B. 3 June 1986)

This gate from 1616 is a remnant of the Abbey of our Lady of Nazareth. Over five centuries (1235-1797) there were sisters of the Cistercian Order in Lier. ‘Seven manners of Minne’, a mystical treat is by the hand of the first priory Beatrice of Nazareth. The monastery was completely destroyed in 1579 during the religious wars. The sisters then stayed in their refugium within the city walls. The whole was rebuilt in the early 17 century, but after the French Revolution the monastery was sold and almost completely demolished. Only the gate building and a barn remained. Above the gate, both on the street side and on the inner side, the stone faces have been worked in with the coat of arms of two former abdises.
Nederlands: Poortgebouw van de Abdij van O-L-V van Nazareth

(beschermd als stadsgezicht K.B. 3 juni 1986)

Deze poort uit 1616 is een overblijfsel van de Abdij van Onze-Lieve-Vrouw van Nazareth. Gedurende ruim vijf eeuwen (1235-1797) waren er zusters van de cisterciënzerorde in Lier gevestigd. ‘Seven manieren van Minne’, een mystiek traktaat is van de hand van de eerste priores Beatrijs van Nazareth. Het klooster is in 1579 tijdens de godsdienstoorlogen volledig vernield. De zusters verbleven toen in hun refugium binnen de stadsmuren. Begin 17de eeuw is het geheel heropgebouwd, maar na de Franse Revolutie is het klooster verkocht en bijna volledig gesloopt. Alleen het poortgebouw en een schuur zijn bewaard. Boven de toegangspoort, zowel aan de straatzijde als aan de binnenplaatszijde, zijn gevelstenen met het wapenschild van twee voormalige abdissen ingewerkt.
