The Cicindria or Cicindriabeek is a stream in the Belgian province of Limburg.This stream rises at an elevation of 120 meters near the language border in Hasselbroek, a hamlet of Jeuk in the municipality of Gingelom. The source of the Cicindria is located near the Hasselbroek castle grounds. The Cicindria flows north and empties into the Melsterbeek near Melveren. Between Jeuk and Borlo, the Voortbeek flows into the Cicindria. The Cicindria then flows via Buvingen, Muizen, and Kerkom-bij-Sint-Truiden towards Sint-Truiden. Near the former military airfield, the stream flows under the runway. In the center of Sint-Truiden, the stream is completely covered. Near the beguinage, the Cicindria emerges above ground again. A few hundred meters further, the Cicindria flows into the Melsterbeek, a tributary of the Gete. Along the Cicindria River are several castles and watermills, including Hasselbroek Castle in Hasselbroek, the Sandix Mill in Borlo, the Dorpsmolen in Kerkom-bij-Sint-Truiden, Alstergoed Castle in Kerkom-bij-Sint-Truiden, and the Wit Kasteel in Kerkom-bij-Sint-Truiden.
