Historic Lift Bridge and Water Tower, Moerbeke

Highlight • Monument

The water tower next to the Moervaart was built around 1879 as part of the domain of the Lippens castle. The tower or "stroomwaterophijscher" is built in the donjon tower style with square dark red brick in horizontal bands, consoles and diamond motifs. The pumping installation that was originally part of the water tower has since disappeared.

A flying dragon adorns the ridge of the slate tent roof. Under the roof is an iron tub, which was used as a water reservoir.

Cycle path on the Old Railway Line Lokeren–Moerbeke

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Handy cycle path between Lokeren and Moerbeke. Used to be an old railway that has been transformed into a cycling and walking path. Watch out because you have to stop regularly to give way.
