Trappisten Café, Westmalle

Highlight • Cafe

Here in the Cafè Trappist you can taste the beer that is brewed in the abbey opposite.
You have the choice between:
Westmalle Triple
First brewed in 1934, Westmalle Tripel is sometimes referred to as the "mother of all Tripel".

Westmalle Dubbel
The dark red-brown Westmalle Dubbel ferments in the bottle and tastes of malt and fruit.

Westmalle Extra
Westmalle The Trappists of Westmalle have been drinking extra with their lunch for a long time. It has a low alcohol content of only 4.8%.

Unfortunately, you cannot visit the Westmalle brewery to avoid disturbing the contemplation in the abbey. The Café Trappisten opposite the abbey shows a free video of the brewery, including in English.
You must reserve by calling +32(0)3 312 05 02 or by sending an email to info@trappisten.be.

Drieboomkensberg Pilgrimage Site

Highlight (Segment) • Religious Site

This place of pilgrimage is dedicated to Our Lady of Fever. The resort is located on the highest peak of a group of inland dunes. In 1746 the 'Convoy Battle' took place in Drieboomkensberg during the 'Succession War'. An English officer was seriously injured and he promised to erect a chapel if he survived the battle alive. His prayers were answered and around 1750 he had a chapel built here. However, this chapel was destroyed in 1800 by a terrible storm. The chapel was never rebuilt. A statue of Mary was hung from one of the three larchs on the hill. This statue can still be found in Drieboomkensberg. In the area you will find the beautiful Kempen forests and the ancient Zandven. The ideal environment to relax,

Westmalle Trappist Brewery

Highlight • Religious Site

You may already be familiar with Westmalle's beers. But so much more happens within the abbey walls than just brewing. The Trappist Abbey is, first and foremost, a community of monks who pray and work every day.

It is part of the Order of Cistercians of the Strict Observance, but many know us primarily as Trappists.

The brewery is located within the walls of the Trappist Abbey. The brothers determine the policy and oversee its implementation. They use the income to live on and reinvest in the brewery. Any surplus is shared with other abbeys of the order and donated to charities.
