アレントンクの湖・トップ20

Many captivating stories have been written about this well (not just any well). The first probably dates back to 1571, when Lieske Coolbonders committed suicide by drowning herself in the well while the devil himself was pursuing her. Lieske was the illegitimate daughter of Katrien Coolbonders, who was raped by a Spanish nobleman. The nobleman was murdered by Katrien's husband. The body was first dumped in the Devil's Well. Later, it was buried somewhere nearby. (Efkesweg.be)

Bather in Broekeling is a beautiful group of statues of one lady who assumes three poses before taking a bath. The work is by Hannes Verhoeven. More information about Andreas Schotel: Andreas Schotel is mainly known for his Rotterdam and Brabant etchings, but the female nude is also a common thread through his oeuvre. Mies Gips (1898-1991), whom he married in Rotterdam on April 16, 1920, served as the model for the early etchings from the early 1920s. Immediately after the Second World War, Magdaleen Rademaker (1924-2010) became his student. She will be the model for many later etchings with nudes. These etchings also inspired Hannes Verhoeven to create the sculpture “Baadster in Broekeling”.

A stone's throw from walking junction 16 you can admire the sculptures of Hannes Verhoeven. 'Bather in Broekeling'. Enjoy it.
