    In the second half of the nineteenth century and the first half of the twentieth century, Sint-Joris-ten-Distel was the center of the lath splitting craft.

    This memory is kept alive by the name of the main street: Lattenklieversstraat. It was after the municipal merger of Sint-Joris with Beernem in 1977 that the former name "Dorpsstaat" (Village State) was replaced by Lattenklieversstraat.

    As a reminder of this typical local activity, the statue "de lattenkliever" (the lath splitter) has stood in front of the former town hall since April 22, 1994.
