Stroll through the winding streets of Zemst-Laar and meet witches, ghosts, and the mysterious “Kleudde.” According to folk tales, this fictional character from Flemish folklore dwells in the marshes, forests, and heathlands of Laar. You’ll walk past a mysterious stone. A Celtic sacrificial stone? A boundary stone? We don’t know what purpose this curious stone, which was unearthed in 1930, served. In any case, the locals found the “Half Stone” interesting enough to place it on a pedestal.
