There were many water mills on the stream, some of which have been preserved. The Nonnemolen (Leupegem), the Kasteelmolen in Schorisse (milling), the Ladeuzemolen in Etikhove, the Romansmolen, Ter Borgtmolen (milling) and Het Schampkot (only ruins) in Maarke-Kerkem.

In the past, there were frequent flooding problems in the Maarkebeek catchment area.[1] That is why four flood areas were created in Maarkedal, at the Kasteelmolen, Romansmolen, Borgtmolen and at the height of the Pauwelsbeek.[2] A policy will also be drawn up by the end of 2015 to promote fish migration by means of fish ladders near these watermills.

The Maarkebeek has a length of 13.4 km and runs through the Maarkebeek valley and, together with its tributaries Pauwelsbeek and Nederaalbeek, forms the natural connection between the witness hills of the Flemish Ardennes and the valley of the Upper Scheldt.
