WielerToerist Modernist: Kempen (ENG) / Gerlin Heestermans, Chiara Kuijpers, Femke Van Der Meulen

After twelve walking routes featured in Toerist Modernit, it is time to shift gears: a bike route ! And what better place to cycle through than the vast Campine area ? WielerToerist Modernist takes you through a landscape of pines and heathland, where a surprising treasure trove of post-wart heritage awaits: from sleek whike bungalows and bold concrete homes to a playful social housing estate - the region is a true open-air museum of modernism. 

With this richly illustrated guide in hand, you will cycle past the architectural gems of the region, including a fine selection of modern religious buildings. Admire them before it is too late; due to recent vacancies, this religious heritage finds itself in a precarious position. 

As the icing on the cake, the accompanying audio guide lets you hear from some of the key figures of the era. 

Let's hope for a nice bit of tailwind !
