Chapel of the Little Clover, Heusden

Highlight • Religious Site

The 'Chapel of the Klaverken' on the Hoorlingstraat in Heusden (Destelbergen) was founded in 1855, commissioned by Damsel d'Hoop de Synghem. The neo-Gothic, brick chapel was restored in 1974. In the interior there is a wooden altar with a statue of Mary and Child. In 1995 the chapel was protected as a monument. (ArcheoNet Flanders)

Laarne Castle

Highlight • Castle

Laarne Castle has dominated the village center of Laarne for centuries. The first traces of a wooden construction date back to the thirteenth century. The first stone building was built around 1300. In the course of the seventeenth century, the castle acquired its current appearance and the courtyard was also constructed. In the course of the nineteenth century, the castle lost its function as a summer residence and remained uninhabited for a long time. Gradually fell into ruins. It was not until after the Second World War that the castle was restored in several phases. The castle is owned by the Association of Historical Residential Cities of Belgium. There is a special silver collection within the walls. The castle of Laarne can be visited. From the end of June this is possible with a movie guide in which pastor Schatteman tries to come to terms with his conscience as a result of the local witch persecutions.

Kasterstraat Gravel Road

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A sand and gravel road along the Kastermeersen, a remote corner of the Kalkense Meersen. In rainy weather the road can get a bit muddy, but the gravel keeps it passable.

September 24, 2023,🚲 Oostvlaamse Kastelenroute vanuit Beervelde

This is the Cycling along Castles cycle route on Routen.be. Only we left the dog club in Beervelde.
We only deviated from the junction route in one place: at the railway at the beginning of the tour the road was blocked so we took the dirt road on the other side.
The biggest problem with the tour is that we …

Nice quiet ride
Unfortunately, most castles are so shielded that you can't see them 😕
