St. Carolus Borromeus Church is a Baroque church with a spectacular facade in Antwerp. Rubens contributed to this spectacular facade of St. Carolus Borromeus Church. The church was built by the Jesuits between 1615 and 1621. Sadly, on July 18, 1718, lightning struck and 39 ceiling paintings by Rubens were tragically lost in the subsequent fire. Most of the original marble was also destroyed. This block also contains the city library.
