  • The Malines Congresses were a series of Catholic Congresses held in Mechelen (French: Malines), Belgium, with the purpose of bringing together Catholics with leading roles in all walks of life, on the model of the German Katholikentage. The first three, held in 1863, 1864 and 1867, had considerable cultural, social and political impact.

The first congress saw the establishment of the Guild of Saint Thomas and Saint Luke, which shaped Belgian Gothic Revival architecture and art education. The main organiser of the first three congresses was Édouard Ducpétiaux, who died in 1868. They were hosted in Mechelen by the archbishop, Engelbert Sterckx, who died in December 1867, although much of the practical management fell to Isidore-Joseph du Rousseaux, a teacher at the junior seminary where many of the sessions were held. Further congresses were held in 1891, 1909, and 1936. (en)
