    The statue 'De Veerman' can be seen from afar. A good landmark because next to it is the ferry jetty in Sint-Amands.

    Cycling

    The place where the jetty of the ferry in Sint-Amands is located can be recognized from afar by the statue 'De Veerman' by sculptor Marc Macken and refers to the poem of the same name by the French-speaking Flemish poet Emile Verhaeren ('Le Passeur d' eau').
    It was donated to the municipality of Sint-Amands on November 27, 1966 on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the death of Emile Verhaeren, who was born in Sint-Amands.
