St. James' Church (Sint-Jacobskerk) is a former collegiate church in Antwerp, Belgium, built in the Brabantine Gothic style by members of the Waghemakere family and Rombout Keldermans on the site of a hostel and chapel for pilgrims to Santiago de Compostela. It remains a pilgrimage church for travellers to that destination. Its interior is largely Baroque, holding paintings by Rubens, Jordaens and Maerten de Vos and the burial place of Rubens and his wife Helena Fourment.
