On V-Day in 1945 (Liberation Day), the kajotsters of Oordegem hung a small chapel here. The current stone chapel was built in 1949 and the first parish pilgrimage came to this chapel in 1952.

The chapel of Our Lady of Peace has been in existence since V-Day (Liberation Day) in 1945. At that time, the cabin women of Oordegem hung a wooden field chapel on a tree. Four years later, a stone chapel took its place.
