Of course you can stock up on locally produced beers.
Our favorite: Hop Verdomme IPA. The name IPA does not stand for "India Pale Ale" here, but for "Incredible, Powerful & Amazing" with seven Flemish hops from the Westhoek.

Sint-Truiden Abbey
Highlight • Historical Site
Together with the guide you climb the abbey tower and visit the crypt.
Trudo, the nobleman who built a church and monastery around 650, turned this small community into a wealthy abbey that eventually became the town of Sint-Truiden. The abbey tower was built in the 11th century. After 196 steps, with five relaxation and adventure platforms along the way, you can enjoy a breathtaking panorama over the city and region. When climbing you will experience the power of a thousand years of building history. The underground chapel was built under the 11th century Romanesque church. You also have the opportunity to visit the Erekoer, the Academy Hall and the Imperial Hall (subject to reservation).
The tours are suitable for all ages.
Can also be visited without a guide.

Although I've passed by here many times before, I stopped for the first time today. I was so pleasantly surprised that I'm now making it my regular stop/refueling point for my rides to St. Truiden.

Sint-Petruskerk Gingelom
Highlight • Religious Site
This church was designed by Edmund Serrure Jr. and built in 1891-1892. In 1901, the spire of the pre-built west tower blew off, and a new octagonal spire was installed.
It is a neo-Gothic cross basilica, built in brick with limestone used for the frames.
Théodore Schaepkens made the Stations of the Cross, which date from the time of construction, as well as the main altar, the side altars, the pulpit and the communion rail. The confessionals are 18th century.
The church has a 16th-century statue of Our Lady with Child in polychromed wood. The church also has a 13th-century Romanesque baptismal font.
