Schachtbok - schachtbok C-mine

Headframe

A headframe is the construction at the top of a mine shaft containing the winding gear used to take men to the pit face and bring coal to the surface. The headframe you see here was constructed over the old one in 1963, which explains the height difference. Interestingly as a result Winterslag minefield boasts the oldest (1915) and youngest (1963) headframe in the Kempen basin. You can climb the youngest one... and it’s well worth it for the view!

Beeldentuin Staf Timmers - Beeldentuin Staf Timmers

Beeldentuin Staf Timmers

In addition to being a painter and sculptor, Staf Timmers is also a passionate gardener who has made his garden into a work of art.

There you will walk from one surprise to another, full of idyllic corners, with first a park with tall trees, to then be immersed in a maze of art and nature. It is not just a sculpture park, but a garden in which every sculpture has its own place. Art and nature form an expressive and organic whole there.

You can also walk into his workshop and see how an idea grows from a design in putty to a monumental bronze work of art, and how a simple sketch inspires the creation of a fully expressive painting.
