The Grotto of Poelk, located at the intersection of Grotstraat and Omloopstraat in the hamlet of Poelk (Roosdaal), is a Marian grotto that is a replica of the famous grotto in Lourdes. Founded in the 19th century by local residents, the grotto was built with sandstone from a demolished castle in the area and the statue of Mary was given a prominent place thanks to a donation from the family of mayor Frans Tondeurs. Since its foundation, the grotto has been a popular place of pilgrimage, where candle processions and Eucharistic celebrations take place every year in May, especially on Ascension Day.

An artificial grotto dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes. The people's shrine was built in 1879 in Tournai natural stone, which was transported from the Scheldt in Wetteren by horse and cart. Opposite the cave, seven brick chapels were built in 1954 containing representations of the seven joys of Mary. The domain experienced its peak in the 1950s and 1960s when hundreds of believers attended the solemn May celebrations. In recent years, 'De Rots' has mainly become a place of silence for people who seek solace in religion and nature. After volunteers had refreshed the sanctuary in recent years, a new, wheelchair-friendly access road has recently been constructed with a permeable paving on both sides for parking. The weathered chapel circuit has also been completely renovated.

The Marian Cave, built in a bend of the Cotthem road in Sint-Lievens-Houtem, is an artificial cave from the Marian year 1954. It is a fairly large elaborate cave with two levels between green plantations. In recent years, the copy of the Lourdes Grotto became overgrown by plants. Stones crumbled and the statues of Mary and Bernadette no longer had any appearance. In 2016, the cave was renovated by volunteers from Okra Oombergen and rededicated by pastor Paul De Neve.

This cave was inaugurated on May 25, 1976. Later, a woman with a large family testified that she had seen an apparition there: a bright light with a female statue in a meadow. The woman's family, friends and acquaintances built a faithful copy of the Lourdes cave on that site, in natural stone. A procession is held here every year.

nice place with a beautifull climb to get there. The road is very narrow at some places and surface could be better.
