Visit the Leyssensmolen

Free children’s activities

Local treats
There's plenty to enjoy for food lovers too! Sample delicious treats at the welcoming food stalls or discover products from local producers at the regional products market. And of course, no visit would be complete without a freshly baked pancake made with flour milled on site by the millers!
