With Captain Zeppos and De Dikke van Pamel
In the fields of Onze-Lieve-Vrouw-Lombeek stands the Hertboommolen, known for centuries as the Tragic Mill but best known as the Zeppos Mill. Yes, the one associated with Captain Zeppos. At the Hertboommolen Museum, you’ll discover the full story of the mill.
Children can have a blast at the playground near the statue of De Dikke van Pamel, which is also the starting point of the 8.4 km-long De Dikke van Pamel Walk. In the Berchembos, you’ll walk among spring streams, steep slopes, and spring carpets of wood anemones and hyacinths.
The St. Martin’s Church in Strijtem is famous for its twelve stained-glass windows and thirty hidden devils. The Church of Our Lady features a Baroque organ and an impressive altarpiece dedicated to the Virgin Mary dating from 1520–1530. On the edge of the Hulsbroek Forest lies one of the oldest Lourdes grottoes in Flanders.
