The Neanderthal site

The Neanderthal site in Veldwezelt is the first and only protected archaeological site in Flanders. The geological structure of the walls is unique in its kind in North-Western Europe !

A visit of the Neanderthal site will teach you a lot about these people. What did they do here ? How did they arrive here and why ? How did they live ? You will experience at the same time how the climate evolved, and which effect it had on the vegetation, fauna and flora.

Sint-Heribertuskerk Remersdaal

The landscape in the eastern part of the Voer region shows all the characteristics of the ”Land van Herve”: scattered farmhouses, meadows, hawthorn hedges and fruit orchards.
Apart from the neogothic St Heribertus church from 1897 some remnants and the farm belonging to the castle ”Het Hoes” may be seen. The much better preserved castle of Obsinnich, from the 17th century, is to be found some kilometres away from the village centre next to the railway line. It is now in use as a Youth Hostel.
When passing the borough boundary on the way to Sippenaken – where the splendid castle of Beusdaal may be admired – a curious monument is passed. It was raised in the memory of the victims of the electrical wire which separated Belgium and the Netherlands in World War I (the Great War)

Politie- en Motormuseum

In the museum you will find a collection of over 40 year-old police and gendarme uniforms and everything associated with them. You will also find old motorbikes here. There is no lack of legendary Belgian brands such as Gillet, FN and Sarolea. But rare makes such as a French Terrot and a Hungarian Danuvia are also proudly on display. Most of them date from the first half of the previous century.

Naturally there is a lot more to discover in Pierre Thijs's museum. If you would like to arrange a visit, this is always possible on request.

Slag heap and picknick spot Thor park Waterschei

The spoil tips in Genk are real beacons in the landscape. Do you know how they came about? These ‘mountains’ consist entirely of piles of waste rock removed from the different layers of the coal veins. If you see a spoil tip, there used to be a mine in the vicinity! These ‘waste mountains’ unexpectedly created their own microclimate, enabling you to discover a wide range of unique plants and animals over there today. The spoil tip was declared a protected landscape in 1999. You can climb to the very top. Don’t forget to wear sturdy shoes.

Thor is a very special urban park, noted for (among other things) its various cycle trails, footpaths and picnic spots. It’s a relaxing environment for employees on the site, but also for those living round about and for visitors who want to experience the area’s natural beauty.

Compressor Hall

In the heyday of black gold, the Compressor Hall was the pounding heart of the mine enterprise. In a sense it was also its lungs for at the time it housed the winding mechanism and the compressors, which (among other things) supplied the underground shafts with fresh air. So what happened in this space was of vital importance to the miners down the pit!
