OPEN WALK BY THE REGIONAL GUIDES PAJOTTENLAND AND ZENNEVALLEI+
To the festive farmers' market in Gaasbeek.
On Saturday, June 27, 2026, at 2:30 PM.
Gaasbeek not only has its castle and park with museum garden. Gaasbeek also has a unique village square and pillory. Every day you have the feeling that time stands still here.
On Saturday afternoon, the square gets another asset.
Farmers and horticulturists from the area sell their products there, straight from the field. Since June 6, 1981.
Our walk departs at the Meiseniersschuur of the Hof te Wivercen, Grote Vijverselenweg 33 in 1750 Lennik.
The farm belongs to the oldest Frankish-Merovingian settlements in the region. We find the name Wivercen in an old known tithe description from 1231. Since 1974, the farm has been restored by Jan Leyssens. In the courtyard, we see the former pillory of Lennik. Ook de Andreas Masiuskelder can be found here.
We walk in Lennik and Gaasbeek. Full nature. Green. Quiet. Along the way, some large farms with history. On the Arconateplein in Gaasbeek, we visit the 45th farmers' market. Here, there is a party. Opportunity to drink something, taste, and soak up the atmosphere. We pay a short visit to the O.L.V church and graveyard around the church. Here we find 3 grave monuments of the Arconati-Visconti family. Via rural and quiet roads, we return to our starting point.
A warm welcome from the Streekgidsen Pajottenland and Zennevallei+
