"Huis 't Sestich", also known as "Maison van 't Sestich", is a gothic townhouse located in #Leuven (Vlaams-Brabant), Belgium. Constructed between 1375 and 1425, it originally belonged to noble families Van Nethenen and Van Cuyck. Between 1508 and 1518, it was acquired by the van 't Sestich family from Sistig, Germany. The house features a notable stepped gable with intricate lancet windows, trilobed motifs, and decorative elements. In 1683, it became part of the College van de Hoge Heuvel, a seminary for Dutch Catholic priests.
