St. Blasius Church Krombeke

The Saint Blasius Church is the parish church of the village of Krombeke. The church was built in the 15th and 16th centuries. During the Iconoclasm, the church was partially destroyed but was subsequently restored. The sacristy was added in 1874.

The church bell of Krombeke rings 72 times daily. This tradition refers to the legend of Knight Cornelius Witsoone, who once got lost for 72 hours in the Saint Sixtus Woods. He found his way back when he heard the church bells ringing.
