The Landhuis - Old Town Hall
Highlight • Historical Site
The yellowish sandstone and architectural concept may mislead you and suggest a medieval origin, but this building is much more recent.
In the Landhuis you will find the tourist information office, the council chamber, the wedding hall and the municipal archives.

Temse Scheldt Bridge
Highlight • Bridge
The bridges connect landscapes and people.
Trains, cars, cyclists and walkers make daily use of this beautiful building designed by Gustave Eiffel. At 374 meters, the Scheldt Bridge is the longest bridge over water in Belgium and is also the last bridge over the Scheldt, downstream, towards the sea.
The first bridge was designed by Eifel and was completed in 1870.
She served in the railway connection between Mechelen and Terneuzen.
Because there were no cars or bicycles driving around at that time, it was only accessible to railway traffic and pedestrians.
With a length of 343 m (in 1870), it was immediately the longest bridge in Belgium.
During the First World War, the bridge suffered serious damage.
She was restored. Because she was and still is an important connection.
In 1940, however, it was blown up by French and Belgian engineers for strategic reasons.
After the war, the construction of a new bridge was given priority. The first pile was placed on June 2, 1949.
The solemn inauguration by King Baudouin followed on 19 December 1955.
The current bridge is 365 meters long.
In April 1994 the movable part was replaced by a new roller bascule bridge; the solemn reopening of the bridge took place on April 29, 1994.
On the side of Temse are two monumental statues by Karel Aubroeck: The Scheldt and The Waves. These were placed in 1958 and 1964.
Enjoy this horizontal work of art while pedaling or walking…

Buitenland hamlet
Highlight • Settlement
Nice special houses and only one street in Buitenland create a cozy atmosphere.
On sunny days it can be quite busy here. Parking is possible at the dike. Please note, parking spaces are limited. If all places are occupied, you can continue to the Mobilhome parking a little further away.

Kleine Kragewiel
Highlight • Lake
According to legend, the storm died down after the procession with a statue of the Virgin Mary and the breach could only be closed after 5 years. The rising water had free play in the landscape all those years. The large water features 'fish ponds' in the spacious surroundings of Bornem are still silent witnesses of dike breaks.
Perhaps that's why the towpath attracts so many 'cycling' tourists…
At the Kleine Kragewiel there is a picnic bench that invites you to linger.
Swimming is prohibited. Enjoy life on and around the water.
