C-mine
Anyone who visits Genk shouldn't miss C-mine. This creative hotbed lives and breathes a unique atmosphere. At the former Winterslag mining site, respect for the industrial past goes hand in hand with contemporary, artistic industriousness.
There is plenty to do both in and around the former mining buildings. Have you heard about the C-mine expedition, for example, an underground experience tour? A must-see for anyone who wants to find out more about Genk’s mining history!
The impressive, restored Energy building (Energiegebouw) is the beating heart of C-mine. There, you will find the C-mine visitors’ reception, where you can go with all your questions about the site, as well as activities and excursions in Genk and the surrounding area.

Reading between the Lines - Gijs Van Vaerenbergh
One of the eye-catchers of the PIT project is the see-through church by the Belgian architect duo Gijs Van Vaerenbergh.
'Reading Between the Lines' is a construction of ten metres high and consists of one hundred stacked layers of steel positioned in the shape of a small church of Borgloon. The unique way of construction causes the landscape to always be visible through the church.
