    The Lendrikkapel is a chapel in the Vilvoorde Domain Drie Fonteinen dedicated to Landricus van Zinnik.

      The chapel was originally built in 1667 in the disappeared hamlet of Ransbeek in the current Brussels district of Neder-Over-Heembeek. The chapel was built at the expense of Jean de Béjar (jr), canon and scholaster and dean of the Ghent St. Bavo's Church from 1700 until his death in 1709.[1] Jean de Béjar Jr. (25 August 1621 - Ghent, 9 April 1709), was the son of Jean de Béjar Sr. and Anna Butkens, the first Lady of Crayenhove and Ransbeek. The chapel was consecrated on October 13, 1669. It originally stood at a source at a height above the canal: the Font St-Landry or Sint-Lendriksborre. Today, a small forest remains at this location, the Sint-Lendriksbosje, between the ring road and modern industrial estates on De Béjarlaan.

      When the area around Ransbeek deteriorated in the twentieth century and was seriously threatened by the construction of an enormous coking factory (Cokeries de Marly), Daniël Campion, then councilor, had the chapel demolished stone by stone in 1930-1931 and placed on his castle grounds on the rebuild the current location in the period 1933-1934.

      The chapel was reportedly “gently” restored in 1978[2].
