Conference Venue

The conference XIV DBMC will be held at ‘Het Pand’, the Cultural Centre of the University of Ghent.  ‘Het Pand’, a former Dominican monastery, is located in the historical centre of the city, on the banks of the river Leie.  The oldest parts of this impressive building date from the 13th century.  During five centuries it was extended and refashioned in different styles.  Since its rehabilitation and restoration, finished in 1991, ‘Het Pand’ has been offering a wide range of possibilities for the organisation of scientific congresses and cultural events. ‘The Pand’ houses some valuable collections, such as the rich ethnographical and archaeological collections of the university, the Museum for the History of Medicine, full-size photographs of paintings of Bruegel and Early Netherlandish Masters, and an interesting collection of stained glass.
The street address of ‘Het Pand’ is: Onderbergen 1, 9000 Gent.
