Saint Sixtus Abbey of Westvleteren

Highlight • Religious Site

Unfortunately, you cannot visit the abbey and the brewery. The "Claustrum" is also currently closed. In this information room in the "In de Vrede" meeting center, directly opposite the abbey, the monks provide an insight into their monastic life.

You can't buy beer here. This is only possible after prior registration and order via the abbey's website.

But don't worry: you don't come for free! In the meeting center you can taste the "best beer in the world", because only here the Trappist beer from Westvleteren is served.

If you have a sweet tooth: try the "Coupe In de Vrede", prepared with delicious ice cream and Westvleteren Trappist.

In the shop you can buy Trappist cheese, Abbey cheese, Abbey pâté, Kruydekoecke, Hemnepot and many other regional specialties.

Villa Martha

Highlight • Historical Site

An old hunting lodge dating from 1902. It was built by order of landowner Emile Valcke as a wedding present for his niece Martha Valcke who married Mr. Marcel Vandecasteele. Since 1914 the small villa was no longer used and therefore fell into disrepair. In 2009 villa Martha was restored again. The small villa is now closed as private property and is now also inhabited again.

Café De Miserie

Highlight • Cafe

In the past 2 years, recordings for the fiction series "Chantal" took place at various locations in the Westhoek. The series takes place in the fictional village of Loveringem. Inspector Chantal and Sheriff Cloedt, played by Maaike Cafmeyer and Dries Heyneman respectively, are the protagonists. The first series was shown on TV at the beginning of this year and a second series by Chantal has already been recorded. The tourist services of Alveringem and Lo-Reninge, together with Toersime Westhoek, have now mapped out a cycle route of approximately 45 km along various film locations and various sights in both municipalities. The cycle route can be followed on the basis of specific signposts. The renowned café "In de Miserie" could of course not be missed along the route. The Bar/tabac on the French border in Beveren-IJzer was previously a youth house/inn "Zacheus" that was only open for youth movements in the summer, a folk café "The Busker" and later became a well-known restaurant "De Zalitude". Because the restaurant moved to a different location, the vacant café/restaurant could be used for the recordings. The saloon is one of the many eye-catchers along the route.
