Mechelen (English: Mechlin) is a city of about 85,000 (2016) people in the Flemish region of Belgium. Mechelen reached its zenith as capital of the Netherlands and as a centre of culture under the regency of Margaret of Austria. Since 1559 Mechelen has been the see of Belgium’s only archbishopric. The River Zenne flows into the River Dijle in Battel, a hamlet of the city.[1]
