According to tradition, this is the first church in the Voervallei. The chapel was dedicated to the Holy Cross, a patronage that was mainly in use in the High Middle Ages. Later the name of Verona Chapel, after Saint Verona, came into effect. Source and (much) more: inventaris.onroerenderfgoed.be/erfgoedobjecten/41512

The parish of Vroeienberg used to be located here, which later became part of Leefdaal.

The St. Verona Chapel is a three-aisled Romanesque chapel built around the year 900. Inside is the statue of St. Verona, a Merovingian sarcophagus and a late Gothic wall tabernacle. The chapel is open during celebrations and special occasions.
Behind the chapel, stairs and a pedestrian path lead to the street, where you will find the covered Verona Spring on the right.
