The municipal Hopveld, created in 2009, is an ode to the now lost hop culture. Affligem hop once belonged to the best in all of Europe, along with those from Asse and Aalst. Until the middle of the 20th century, hop cultivation was an important economic factor for this region to the extent that hops were called "the green gold".

We could admire the hop cones up close because they were in a heap on the ground.
