    Chapel dedicated to Saint Odulf(us). Picturesquely situated rural place of worship next to and parallel to the elevated Scheldt dike. According to old photos, the chapel was previously flanked by two one-storey dike houses.
    According to literature, a chapel of the same name was already mentioned in 1328. It was damaged during the religious troubles in 1579-1580. It was only restored at the beginning of the 17th century, see J. Maestertius who mentioned in 1646 that the chapel had recently been restored and see the bronze bell that bears the year 1623. On the Vander Maelen map of around 1845 the chapel was recorded as "Chap.(elle) St.-Onolfs". The chapel was renovated around 1975-1979.

      The single-nave chapel with five bay windows, picturesquely situated next to the elevated Scheldede dike, is a real eye-catcher. A chapel of the same name was mentioned here as early as 1328. The turmoil of religious unrest in the years 1579-1580 did not pass it by without consequences and it was not until the beginning of the 17th century that believers repaired it.

          I think it's Saint Onolf
