There is also a nice picking garden at this chapel. And a monument to a resistance fighter from the 2nd world war.

Hiking
Chapel in honor of St. Anthony Abbot, a small alcove chapel with a canopy dating from 2007, at the corner of De Hei and Grensweg. The small chapel is located about a hundred meters from the spot where another small chapel likely stood until shortly after the Second World War.

Hiking
The small St. Antonius Chapel is hidden along a quiet sandy road between forests, fields, and old farms. The current chapel was built in 2007, but is located near the spot where an older St. Anthony's Chapel once stood, which eventually disappeared after severe storm damage in the nineteenth century.
The place still has that typical quiet atmosphere of the Brabant countryside. Hikers and cyclists often stop here briefly at the bench or the picnic spot next to the chapel, surrounded by nature and quiet sandy roads.
