Paved Path Through Heverleebos & Meerdaalwoud

Highlight • Trail

The Heverleebos and the Meerdaalwoud together form a vast nature reserve just outside Leuven, ideal for hikers, cyclists and nature lovers. In this green landscape, stately beech avenues, old oak forests and small streams alternate, and the serene atmosphere attracts visitors who want to enjoy peace and natural beauty.

Sint-Agatha-Rode Church

Highlight • Religious Site

In the 11th century, a church was probably built here by the count of Leuven, Godfried I, when Sint-Agatha-Rode was founded here. It was then probably a Romanesque church building.
In 1140 the church was handed over by Godfried II to the chapter of the collegiate St. Peter's Church in Leuven.
Around 1400 the church was rebuilt and it took the shape it still has 600 years later.
At the end of the 16th century, the Geuzen destroyed the church and it was rebuilt in the period 1597-ca. rebuilt 1608.
Around the middle of the 18th century a new sacristy was built by order of the St. Peter's Chapter, because the old one had been in disrepair for many years.
