Van Gastel from 1869 and converted into a neoclassical double house with a blocked central risalit under a triangular pediment, renovated in 1980.

Currently plastered painted cornice facade with later added decorative elements such as pseudopilasters with lotus leaf capital and balusters. Rectangular windows and a pointed arch door.

Three-Eared Pot Fountain

Highlight • Monument

The pot fountain was inaugurated in 1978. The fountain consists of three copper pots that were designed and manufactured by the staff of Union Minière (now: Umicore). They symbolize the visits of Emperor Charles to Olen as it is told in the legend of the pot with the three ears. This legend is perhaps the best known of the many Olen and Kempen folk tales and makes Olen famous far beyond the national borders.

This nature reserve is a former military domain of 64 ha that is partly located on Olen territory. The domain can be reached via the Boerenkrijglaan and there is a large parking lot. Hikers and nature lovers can go there on the paved roads.

Teunenberg Estate is a beautiful area for walking. You can enjoy the peace and quiet and nature at any time of year. You can sit down on the Mondig bench and admire the surroundings.

You'll usually encounter a few people, but it's still an oasis of tranquility.

Teunenberg Nature Reserve

Highlight • Forest

The Teunenberg area is a former English (army) camp after WWII and the Cold War.
There are still some old barracks that have been converted.
The area is approximately 60 hectares and is now owned by the Agency for Nature and Forests. They transform the area into a pleasant walking and cycling zone with many accessible paths.
