Charming Chapel
The modest 16th century chapel was restored in 1972, and was a place of pilgrimage since the 19th century. Nowadays it is still a place of worship and the people maintaining it keep the place immaculate and in very good shape with fresh flowers in front of the madonna with child and lots of activities like concerts and the weekly 'rozenhoedje' on Mondays. It is a small and cozy place with in addition to the niche with madonna, sixty chairs and a small organ. Interesting to visit if you want to find out about Roman Catholic tradition and culture that still constitutes the core of the value system in Brabant. Note the relics near the madonna (legs, knees, hearts etc.) and the plaques with words of thanks to the holy mother on the wall left next to the entrance: "thank you for having opened my eyes."

Lovely small chapel
Small chapel surrounded by houses from the same period. Nice for a short visit. In may (Maria month) there are additional things to do, and you can buy old Dutch candy from stoolholders at the square
