    Yürüyüş

    In the Saint Martin's Church in Tessenderlo, there is one of the last five Gothic rood screens that exist in Belgium. It dates from 1520-1525 and is considered the largest (eleven metres long) and most beautiful in our country. The rood screen or jubee separates the nave and choir and is made of soft limestone from Avesnes. It rests on eight Tournai hardstone pillars. The rood screen is also called the "bible of the common man" because it depicts the life of Christ and the illiterate believers could "see what was said".
