For centuries, pilgrims traveled along the Sint-Jobsweg to the Church of St. Martin in Wezemaal to venerate St. Job, one of the patron saints against the plague. You’ll walk past vineyards, through forests, and along sunken paths across the hills of the Hageland. Take a moment to sit on a bench at the beautiful Horst Castle and feel the centuries of history come alive. The Wagenhuis houses a visitor center with a heritage shop and a cozy local inn. You’ll also walk past the Heilige Geestmolen, a 16th-century watermill on the Winge River.
