Not much to see yet, but...
At the end of 2024, there will be a working mill again in Sint-Amands (Puurs-Sint-Amands). The historic Gansakkermolen from 1797 was originally located in Geel, but will soon be restored and rebuilt in Sint-Amands. During Open Monument Day, everyone could visit the future site where the Mill Museum is now located.
