    Tips

    May 4, 2023

    Of all the small towns on the Meuse, Oud - Rekem has one of the most authentic village centers. Sometimes it was an independent rule with its own coin, its own customs law, its own army and judiciary. Wandering here really means going back to the Middle Ages. Not for nothing was this beautiful little village voted the most beautiful village in Flanders by Tourism Flanders in 2008. Three churches, a chapel, a castle and a pharmacy museum are just a few of the well-preserved sights in the village centre.

      What a beauty! What a history! Rest assured, you have not stepped into a time machine, you have simply ended up in one of the most beautiful, historic villages in Flanders.

      If walls could talk, they would have a lot to say in Oud-Rekem. Since the village still had its own currency, its own customs law, its own army and judiciary.

      Take a look at the three churches, the chapel, the castle or the museum pharmacy - everything has been beautifully restored with great attention to detail.

      Tip: Do you fancy some noble fun? Visit the restaurant in the castle d'Aspremont-Lynden!

        With the Castle d'Aspremont-Lynden, the Museum Church, the Museum Pharmacy, Distillery Senden and the many historical buildings you travel back in time. The Drossaerdhuis, the Gatehouse and the Court of Justice are also worth a visit. In other words, a picturesque open-air museum.
