Molen Ter Zeven Wegen is a characteristic hilltop mill dating back to 1790 in Denderwindeke, recognizable by its raised body after the fire of 1863, the overhanging corbel course, and the striking chair cap. The mill stands at an open intersection of rural roads and forms a strong silhouette in the Pajottenland farmland. After the restoration of 2002–2005, it is once again ready to grind, making this a living piece of heritage and a natural, short stop during a ride through the hills around Ninove.

The Woestijnkapel or Chapel of the Holy Cross is located on the Woestijnstraat in Strijland, a hamlet of Gooik. A chapel was built on this site in the 13th century, when a shepherd's dogs found a yellow copper crucifix while digging in the ground. The cross, which must have been made around 1280, quickly became the subject of veneration as a pilgrimage site for pilgrims who came to the Woestijn. The current chapel, however, was only built in 1600, and the unvaulted portal was added in 1713. Inside is a baroque portico altar from 1635 with two Corinthian columns. The chapel has been protected as a monument since 1942. Source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/erfgoed/4952793498
