Description
St. Anthony's Mountain is named after the St. Anthony's Chapel at the foot of the "mountain". The saints venerated there are the Virgin Mary, Anthony of Egypt, Joseph of Nazareth and Father Damien. The latter is also buried in the crypt. But since the Leuven World Cup, Sint-Antoniusberg has also become known among cycling enthusiasts. Julian Alaphilippe rode away from the rest and became the winner of the World cycling championships.
