The Our Lady Chapel, located along the Beerze River, is a popular pilgrimage site in Brabant. The legend dates back to 1406 when a shepherd found a statue of Mary floating in the river and placed it in an oak tree. When moved to a church, the statue mysteriously returned to the tree, seen as a divine sign to build a chapel.
