d'Ursel Provincial Park

Highlight • Castle

Around the castle lies a domain that, together with the Hingenebroekpolder and Schellandpolder, once measured around 300 hectares. The park around the castle is around 40 hectares and is connected to the polders that are part of the Bornem silence area via the Notelaerdreef. In the park you will find yourself in an oasis of peace. The domain is open to the public and is eagerly visited by walkers and joggers.

Benedendijk

Highlight • Cycleway

A narrow paved road runs symmetrically with the Scheldt dike, but a few meters lower... The dike resembles a long, narrow and green hill...

De Groenendijk

Highlight • Restaurant

Wonderful to stay here with a view of Scaldis and Rupelmonde.
The Groenendijk in Wintam is the reference in Klein-Brabant when it comes to authentic dishes: meat, fish, eel and game. Grandmother's delicious cuisine takes you back to the past.

Green Pool

Highlight • Lake

Definitely worth a visit. A place with a history. Silent witnesses to several dike breaches.
Wielen are ponds where you can spot all kinds of plants and animals. The many "wielen" in Bornem are silent witnesses to powerful dike breaches during major floods. They formed when the old dikes could no longer withstand the force of the Scheldt waters.
The village of Nattehaasdonk was completely swallowed by a storm surge in 1825. The Huveneersheuvel archaeological site and the information board at the Wintam Sea Lock, "Fort Sint-Margriet," provide a wealth of information about this distant past.
Now, the Groene Wiel, or Nattenhaasdonk lake, is a prime spot for recreational anglers.
Enjoy life on and around the Wiel.

Donatus Kwik

Highlight • Monument

Farmer's son from a story by Hendrik Conscience.
Donatus Kwik is the main character in the book "The Gold Country" by Hendrik Conscience. This book is probably the first Western story written in Dutch.

Chapel of Our Lady, Comfort in Distress

Highlight • Religious Site

The neo-Gothic chapel is a brick building with natural stone, on a rectangular plan under a slate tent roof. The chapel has a lower, five-sided, projecting choir and is preceded by an entrance portal with a pointed gable. The wall openings are pointed arch-shaped. The facades are also characterized by diagonal, two-part buttresses and a mouse-tooth frieze. The choir has a brick frieze in a decorative pattern. The interior has brick walls and a wooden dome vault.
