Gansakkermolen - Sint-Amands
Highlight • Monument
At the end of 2024, there will be a working mill again in Sint-Amands (Puurs-Sint-Amands). The historic Gansakkermolen from 1797 was originally located in Geel, but will soon be restored and rebuilt in Sint-Amands. During Open Monument Day, everyone could visit the future site where the Mill Museum is now located.

Tomb of Émile Verhaeren
Highlight • Monument
The French state wanted to erect an honorary grave for him in the Panthéon in Paris, but the family refused. She had him buried in the Adinkerke military cemetery in the middle of the First World War. After a stopover in Wulveringen, he has been in his home village of Sint-Amands since 1927.

Esplanade - Sint-Amands Quay
Highlight • Viewpoint
Interestingly, here you can also enjoy a unique experience called 'bank hopping'. The triangular ferry between Mariekerke, Moerzeke and Sint-Amands allows you to travel to the other side of the river in no time, giving you the opportunity to explore various scenic locations along the Scheldt.

Tourist Steam Train
Highlight • Monument
Kedeng, Kedeng! Here comes the steam train puffed. He drags a plume of smoke behind him that gently but surely blows away in the clouds. The steel colossus thunders and trudges, comes to a stop with screeching brakes and waits shiny in front of the platform. Are you getting in?
Go through Scheldeland
Today you will ride on a 14 kilometer long railway that meanders through Scheldeland. You can board a real steam train – every Sunday in July, August and September. Do not forget to get off at one of the stations where you will find charming villages. Explore the region on foot or by bike, stop at one of the restaurants in the area or discover the lush nature of Scheldeland!
