뉴베르케르켄‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

헬스호벤의 가장 높은 지점에서 하스펜고우 풍경의 숨막히는 전경을 감상할 수 있습니다. 예술가 Frits Jeuris는 이 지역의 수십 그루의 베어진 과일나무로 독특한 예술 작품을 만들었습니다. "Helsh(ea)ven"은 50년 된 표준 체리나무 90그루로 구성된 목조 예술 작품으로, 2016년 말에 작은 체리 열매를 유발하는 전염성 식물 질병인 체리 페스트 바이러스에 감염되었습니다. 이제 베어진 나무들이 두 번째 생명을 얻습니다. 이 예술 작품은 하스펜고우의 역동적인 풍경을 상징합니다.

검은 악마들

Very relaxing, beautiful well-maintained paths.

The Herkenrode Abbey site is an interesting combination of culture, history, nature and an ideal starting point for walks.

Monument with several large helmets to commemorate the battle that took place here during WWI. It also offers a view of the surroundings.

Experience the divine feeling of floating here...

Here, at the gallows, you are at the highest point in Helshoven. The artwork 'Helsh(ea)ven' by Frits Jeuris, known to most as the 'floating chapel', invites you to enjoy that landscape and the work itself. It is made from cherry tree wood. At the end of 2016, the 50-year-old high-stemmed trees in Helshoven had to be cut down due to a viral disease, Little Cherry, which causes tasteless cherries. The gallows represents death. Dead trees. And the dead person. And then there are the trees that are given a second life in the artwork, the floating chapel. An end, a beginning, a view, between heaven and Helshoven, inviting reflection, looking and of course what the work is best known for: that strange image of a chapel that seems to float.

Those who like a bit of relief will find plenty to enjoy on this easternmost Diestian hill. The Galgenberg takes its name from the location of the gallows that were used to hang criminals. The forests are freely accessible to hikers, but are not open to cyclists or mountain bikers due to their sensitivity to erosion.
