美しい環境と歴史に触れる

The Humbeek-Sas lift bridge is a classic metal lift bridge that spans the Brussels–Scheldt Sea Canal in Humbeek, a sub-municipality of Grimbergen. Built in 1968, it is one of three identical lift bridges on the canal, along with: Brielen Bridge (Tisselt) Verbrande Bridge (Grimbergen) All three share the same dimensions: 38.4 m long and 11.6 m wide.

Not far from the Lintbos parking lot stands a wooden sculpture of a kingfisher. The kingfisher is a cherished neighbor of Grimbergen. The "Cherish Neighbors" project is an initiative of the province of Flemish Brabant, in collaboration with the Brabantse Kouters Regional Landscape and the municipality, aimed at protecting local biodiversity. The goal is to "cherish" specific animal and plant species native to the municipality and protect their habitats from fragmentation.

There is a play area and picnic table near the parking lot.

A church with a wooden tower dates back to the 11th century. Construction began in the 13th century on a stone church, which was modified and expanded primarily in the 15th and 17th centuries. The church was significantly enlarged in 1655 with the support of Count Eugeen de Berghe, Lord of Sint-Brixius-Rode (see the coat of arms on the west facade). When the church became very dilapidated at the end of the 19th century, urgent repairs were necessary. Between 1907 and 1908, the church underwent a thorough renovation in the Neo-Gothic style, carried out according to plans by architect F. Symons (1869-1942). The windows and roofing, in particular, were extensively modified. Source: Inventory of Immovable Heritage
