A first ‘living’ hop monument was erected at the request of the
Heemkundige Kring De Faluintjes. It was unveiled on 2 September
2006 by Yves Leterme (then Prime Minister and Minister of Agriculture) and in the presence of Mayor Annie de Maght and Mr.
Abbot Benedictus Verschelden of the Affligem Abbey.
In September 2018, a new ‘living’ hop monument was inaugurated;
it was designed and built by artist Jean Bernard Koeman.
The intention is that living hop vines will grow around this iron monument.

Very nice village center. Worth hanging out and looking at everything. The info panels about the hops are worth reading.

The village square is a well-preserved triangular Frankish three-square.
A three-square is a reclaimed piece of land with a lawn in the middle for the animals and
houses and farms around it.
