Old Anatomisch Amfitheater

This octagonal classical style anatomical theatre - Anatomisch Amfitheater - in Leuven "was built in 1743-44 by architect J.A.Hustin on commission of professor H.J.Rega to serve as a dissecting chamber where he also gave anatomy lessons"1. In the late 19th century, the building was equipped as a private studio for painter and sculptor Constantin Meunier2.
