The Volmolen (Full Mill) is one of the most characteristic watermills in the Brabantine Dommel Valley. The power of the river was already being harnessed here in the Middle Ages. The mill's name comes from the "fulling" of wool: using running water and hammers to make the wool denser and firmer. This made the mill an important player in the region's textile industry. The Volmolen is idyllically situated: nestled among poplars and meadows, right on the meandering Dommel River. The rushing of the water and the lapping of the blades give the place an almost timeless atmosphere. Walkers passing by experience the connection between cultural history and nature – a reminder of how people coexisted with the landscape for centuries. Around the mill, damp meadows, stream valley forests, and open fields alternate. The place has a different character in every season: from blooming marsh marigolds in spring to colorful autumn forests later in the year. Moreover, it's an area where, with a bit of luck, you might spot kingfishers, herons, and deer. A visit to the Volmolen is more than just a stopover: it's a glimpse into the past and an ode to the harmony between man and nature in the Brabant landscape.

Saint CAECILIA, to whom this church was dedicated, is primarily responsible for good sound in the great circle of saints - if one can put it so casually here - because she is the patron saint of church music. Many religious choirs are named after her. The dates of her life from the corresponding saint's legend are not historically confirmed, but she is said to be a martyr from the beginning of the third century. The patron saint's feast day, i.e. her memorial day in the calendar of saints, is on November 22nd in all major Christian denominations.
