It's fun. With kids' bikes, gravel bikes, CX and XC bikes – as long as it's reasonably agile. (Of course, it also works with long full-suspension bikes – it's just "over-biked".) Perfect "no-hill flow" :-))

Departure and arrival of our walk. Great terrace, fast service, and delicious food.

This monument was unveiled on March 8, 2001, as a memorial to the war years 1940-1945 and to the more than 800 soldiers of 11 nationalities who lost their lives in the Leudal area. The Monument of Tolerance is a regional monument. It serves as a lasting reminder of the soldiers who died in the entire area comprising the present-day municipality of Leudal, the territory of the municipality of Nederweert located east of the Wessem-Nederweert Canal and the Noordervaart canal, and the territory of the municipalities of Maasgouw and Roermond located west of the Meuse River. A CD-ROM containing this information is placed at the heart of the monument. These fallen soldiers can be viewed in a database on our website. The bronze statue was created by sculptor Thea Houben from Roggel. It consists of a semi-arc on an equilateral triangle, symbolizing the Divine. The seagulls represent freedom. The sword with the laurel wreath and the clasped hands represent the battle that has been fought and the brotherhood that endures despite death. The design of this application, as well as the symbolism of the seagulls, was conceived by John Wagemans. The base of the monument is paved with cobblestones, one for each fallen soldier. The red rays in the paving symbolize the nationalities of the fallen. Source and more: https://monumentoftolerance.com/nl/monument

The Sint-Elisabethsmolen (Sint-Elisabeth Mill) was a watermill on the Leubeek, belonging to the Sint-Elisabethsdal Monastery. Only a ruin remains of this mill. The oldest mention of the mill dates back to 1278. At that time, the monastery received permission from the Lord of Horn to demolish the Roggel watermill on the Roggelse Beek and rebuild it near the monastery. The mill was owned by the monastery, but had to pay tribute to the lord for its use. It was a compulsory mill, and in 1416, it was again decreed that the entire village of Roggel had to have grain milled at this mill. The authenticity of this document was later questioned: the farmers preferred to grind at the Leumolen. In 1796, the monastery was dissolved by the French, and the mill was confiscated and sold. In 1840, it was replaced by a stone mill, larger than the Leumolen. It served as a grain mill, sawmill, and oil mill. In 1844, the mill was set on fire, but was rebuilt. When the German troops withdrew in 1944, the mill was still used to store ammunition. This was destroyed by the retreating soldiers, along with the mill itself. A ruin remained. Renovation of this mill began in 2014. Starting from the ruins, a modern superstructure was built, into which a large, modern waterwheel was installed in 2015. This is connected to a generator that produces electricity, which is used, among other things, by the adjacent restaurant.

lovely to rest after a walk. friendly service and delicious coffee.
