Willebroek Chapel Celebrates 125 Years
Why this is here: The chapel on Heihoek has stood for exactly 125 years, welcoming people of all faiths to a small ceremony.
Descendants of the chapel’s original builder are beautifying the small chapel on Heihoek in Blaasveld, Belgium, to mark its 125th anniversary. Local parishioners plan a small ceremony to celebrate the milestone. They specifically invite Protestants, Orthodox Christians, and Muslims to attend the event.
The chapel stands near the border of Heffen. Family members of the builder undertook the work to restore and enhance the structure. They hope the chapel remains a welcoming place for all people in the community.
The chapel's future upkeep and continued inclusivity depend on ongoing community support. Organizers acknowledge the need for sustained effort to preserve the chapel for future generations.
