At the Pandgatheide you will find this idyllic pond with a wooden jetty. A beautiful location for a picnic on a sunny day. It is pleasant to stay there in nature.
In the past, the pond was a 'flax retting pit'. Farmers had their flax retted there, rotted, so that the fibre came loose from the hard core. Then linen could be made with it.
Klein-Brabant used to be known for its flax industry. That is why you will find many flax retting pits in our region.
