To the east 3km/2miles lies the Abdij van Affligem, founded by Benedictine monks in 1083. The old abbey was largely destroyed in 1797 by French Revolutionary troops. Rebuilding began in 1869 and has continued in a variety of architectural styles. Parts of the original 12th and 13th C. nave can be seen in the garden.
