ズウェーフェゲムのおすすめツーリングルート

ドゥルネ市場の大聖堂

ここには立ち寄りませんでしたが、道路からその場所が見えました。休憩用の椅子やテーブルなどがあります。とても素敵な景色が楽しめる、とても良い場所のようです。

誰もいないととても楽しいです。追い風だとさらに楽しいです。

ドゥルニクの鐘楼はベルギーで最も古いものです（12世紀）。ユネスコ世界遺産の一部であるこの建物は高さ72メートルで、グラン・プラスを象徴しています。257段の階段を上る途中、様々な教育的な展示、牢獄、鐘楼守の部屋、そして夏には毎週日曜日の午後3時半頃に鳴り響く鐘を発見できます。 1192年に建てられたドゥルニクの鐘楼は、自治の自由の象徴です。その鐘（「Bancloque」）は、訴訟、処刑、侵略、火災などの際に住民に警告するために使用されました。鐘楼は監視塔、牢獄、鐘楼、市庁舎として機能しました。ドゥルニクとその周辺の息をのむような景色を提供する最初のテラスにアクセスできます。 出典: visitwapi.be

What is now the bar and café "El Dorado" was once the freight station of Zwevegem. The "Guldensporenpad" walking and cycling path, along which it is located, runs along the route of former railway line number 83, Kortrijk-Avelgem-Ronse. That line was closed in 1960.

As is the case with many chapels, pieces of cloth are tied to the bars of the door (see, for example, the Passjekapel on the Catsberg in Godewaerdsvelde in French Flanders). This refers to a devotion that is actually based on a Germanic tradition: believers come to the chapel hoping for (or in gratitude for) protection and healing from illnesses that cause fever. They leave behind a piece of cloth (bandage, sock, handkerchief, etc.), worn by the sick person.

The Tonte Chapel is a magnificent chapel, largely due to its location: at the highest point in Kooigem, with a number of nearly upright poplars as neighbors. It can therefore be seen from afar. The combination of white paint on the walls and blue woodwork gives the chapel an extra special character. The history of the chapel, which has been a protected monument since 2004, dates back to the first half of the 18th century. The first, smaller chapel was probably built in 1729 but destroyed in 1914, not by war, but by fire following a lightning strike. The current chapel dates from after the First World War. The small chapel was enlarged in 1929 by the residents of the nearby farm. The Tonte Chapel is a popular place of worship, especially in May. Source: Heritage Inventory

Tontestraat (and not 'Tontestraat' as this highlight was originally called) climbs towards Geitenberg, the highest point in Kooigem. There stands the 18th-century Tonte Chapel, which, together with its neighbor, the poplar, forms a landmark in this field-dominated area.
