| Begun in the 12th century on even older foundations, the building combines the work of three design periods with striking effect, the heavy and severe character of the Romanesque nave contrasting remarkably with the Transitional work of the transept and the fully developed Gothic of the choir. | WIKI |
| The nave belongs mostly to the first third of the 12th century. | WIKI |

| The present building is not homogeneous with regard to its chronology and conception, but the result of three coherent projects, completed and still distinguishable: the Romanesque nave and the transept, and the Gothic choir. | UNESCO |
| In particular, it is distinguished by a Romanesque nave of impressive dimensions and richly sculptured and by a transept with five towers that indicate the beginnings of Gothic art. | UNESCO |
| The conception of the nave illustrates a great originality with several important innovations. | UNESCO |
| The transposition to the exterior of the running course of the tall windows, the rise to four levels and the double western door make the nave a unicum in the history of Romanesque architecture, while the sobriety of the ornamental elements appears to be due to the weight of Carolingian traditions, particulary sensitive in the early Low Countries. | UNESCO |
| The damage caused by World War II bombardments was mainly limited to fire damage to the roof of the nave and to some of the chapter buildings. | UNESCO |
