During the guided tours, let yourself be carried away by the fascinating stories of the millers and discover the secrets of traditional milling. A must for lovers of living heritage.

Housed in a charming Flemish house, the Jeanne Devos Museum is a real immersion in 20th-century rural Flanders. A humanist photographer, Jeanne Devos devoted her life to capturing the daily lives of local people: their festivals, their work, their simple yet powerful gestures. With photographs, everyday objects, reconstructions and audio testimonies, the museum offers a sensitive, touching and deeply human experience.

Just a stone’s throw from the centre, theEtang des Trois Sources is a little corner of paradise for those seeking peace and freshness. Surrounded by vegetation and bordered by footpaths, this natural haven appeals to families, anglers, walkers and dreamers alike. Whether you’re picnicking, bird-watching or simply listening to the lapping of the water, the pond offers a soothing break in tune with nature.

Wormhout combines the dynamism of a welcoming town with the warmth of a region proud of its roots, ideal for a day’s getaway!
