Also known as Weyer Castle. This manor house was originally a fief of the County of Loon, mentioned as early as the 13th century. It remained the property of the Weyer family until 1603. In 1641, when the small castle was owned by Jean-Baptist de Graty, it was rebuilt. It was actually an L-shaped manor house surrounded by a moat. The northwest wing (the gatehouse) and the southwest wing are remnants of this. In the second half of the 19th century, two wings were added, and it became a square farmstead. Remnants of the moat are still present. The complex still has 17th-century wall anchors, and above the gate is a facade stone with a coat of arms, the inscription "grata sideragnati", and the year 1641.

Between Diepenbeek and Hasselt, the F70 cycle highway, also known as the Demerroute, runs along the bank of the Demer. This cycle highway, which is under construction, connects Hasselt with Bilzen. When completed, the route will be 21 km long. It is already largely passable, but diversions are temporarily in place in a few locations.

Between Diepenbeek and Hasselt, the F70 cycle path, also known as the Demerroute, runs along the bank of the Demer. This cycle path under construction connects Hasselt with Bilzen. The route will be 21 km long when it is fully completed. It is already largely passable, but diversions are temporarily in place in some areas.

On the F70 cycle highway, you cycle through the green Demer Valley, largely parallel to the railway line. Between Hasselt and Diepenbeek-centrum, you cycle on a comfortable cycle path. Certain sections of the cycle highway still need to be constructed or widened. The section between Diepenbeek and Bilzen will be constructed as part of Infrabel's project to replace the level crossings.
