2 km further in Botassart there are many places of interest.

Place of pilgrimage "Domaine Marial de Botassart": at the entrance of the village of Botassart there is a white stone monument with a statue of the Virgin Mary, on which is written in a halo: "I am the Immaculate Conception". This Maria monument was erected around 1935: the villagers moved the large white stones from their fields to erect this monument. The statue of the Virgin Mary was replaced in the 1990s, after the previous one was broken by a storm.

Viewpoint "Tombeau du géant", completely redesigned in 2020.

Chapel of the Immaculate Conception.

Memorial to a Corporal Paracommanco from Botassart who died in Somalia in 1993.

An old public oven.
