Former Town Hall, Peer
Highlight • Historical Site
The building forms a crucial historical link between the triangular Markt, Kerkstraat and Nieuwstraat. In the ancien régime, the cloth hall and covered market were on the open ground floor, the meeting room for the city magistracy and the aldermen's chamber with its registry on the upper floor. The attic was rented out, usually in different parts, for a variety of purposes, usually to dry products such as hops and malt. Between the pillars on the ground floor was an open cobbled space, where the annual proceedings took place and the people gathered for various proclamations, insofar as these did not take place in the church or in the cemetery. The prisoners were locked up in the cellars.

Visitor Center De Watersnip
Highlight • Rest Area
You can take a break and get something to eat in the visitor center cafeteria.
The Zwarte Beeks valley is a picturesque nature reserve with more than 1,500 hectares of beautiful nature. In Hechtel-Eksel the Zwarte Beek (i.e. the Black Stream) flows through low-lying meadows. As with most Kempen streams, there is no real source here either, but the watercourse is created by the confluence of several ditches.

Rest area on the F74 cycle highway
Highlight • Rest Area
Unfortunately, I found no information about the hall and its former function. It definitely has something to do with the old railway line.
Unfortunately, only a short stretch of the F74 cycle highway is well developed and wide.
