Description
Amid the greenery of the Molenbeek Valley, you’ll come to the Herisem Mill, a gem of industrial archaeology and one of the best-preserved examples of the region’s once-thriving paper and cardboard industry. The 19th-century complex evolved from the old 16th-century paper mill, and all the machinery remained untouched after the factory closed in 140. The historic Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk in Beersel also has a remarkable history and is definitely worth a visit.

Saturday, July 3, 2021 by R.V.Really nothing else to show in Beersel ?? The signs are as good as tucked away and only with that you lose a lot of time. A large part runs on paved roads a.o. through the (ugly) Alsemberg ( does anyone think Colruyt is a landmark ?) and when you get on a piece of dirt road it is half closed because of works. Worthless
