The Ducal Church of Our Lady in Alsemberg has a rich history dating back to the 12th century, when a simple chapel stood on this site. According to legend, a church was founded in 1225 by St. Elisabeth or Mary of Hungary, with a statue of Mary that led to apparitions and made Alsemberg an important place of pilgrimage. The church attracted many prominent visitors over the centuries and was given the title "ducal". In the 19th century, the church was given its characteristic Gothic spire.
