    What Jeff said. Four statues of Duracell batteries were there, to be precise. And De Cock, a well-known figure among hikers in the Aarschot area—see beeld.be/nl/werken/wilfried-de-cock/de-bat-tery—can explain the rest himself at vrt.be/vrtnws/nl/2023/10/04/oude-durcaell-batterij-in-aarschot-is-gerecycleerd-tot-kunstig-v Incidentally, the downsized Duracell is still located nearby.

    Do you recognize the Duracell battery...? The factory is nearby and on a roundabout nearby there used to be these large batteries as an eye-catcher... But the roundabout has been completely redesigned... Natuurpunt and the famous artist Wilfried de Cock have joined forces... They built a bat cellar (another highlight) and this battery was used to set up this beautiful work of art... Called the "bat-tery"...
