Sint-Michielskerk van Kieldrecht

Highlight • Other

The Sint-Michielskerk of Kieldracht dates from 1854. Only the west tower is older - as the sole remnant of the previous, 18th-century church - it was added in 1788. Currently, restoration work is being carried out on that tower.
In 1964, the original floor was replaced, and the gravestones were removed at the same time. The Rococo pulpit, confessionals, and statues (of Saint Michael, among others, of course) are all 18th-century. The Way of the Cross is 19th-century. There are also a number of 20th-century statues to be seen.

Kleine Weel

Highlight • Lake

A 'weel' (also called 'wiel' or 'kolk') is a deep pool of water that originated after a dike breach. The enormous force of the water during such a breach created a deep hole behind the dike, which often remained in the landscape as a mere or pool after the dike was repaired. Such 'welen' often develop into valuable nature reserves.
The Grote and Kleine Weel form an important link between the nature reserves Grote Geule and Drijdijck. The Grote Geule is an offshoot of the former, much larger Land van Saeftinghe.

Grote Geule Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

Bring binoculars. Bones are a must in wetter periods. This is a loop walk so not everything is unpaved (but you will come across a cafe). Thanks to Pasar Waasland
