Geluksplek 21 Roerdalen: De Propeller van Herkenbosch

Two special places of happiness opposite each other. At the propeller there are grief, loss, struggle, commitment and sacrifice. It is a symbol of the six English planes that were shot down here during the Second World War. In addition, 27 young men were killed. Happiness is also about that: courage, freedom, respect and gratitude. This is a social neighborhood. The residents have their own neighborhood association: the Dr. Biermansput. To celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the well, the neighborhood built this Maria chapel in 1996. A peaceful place where you can empathize with victims of war and violence. The propeller of Herkenbosch is a war memorial and chapel that is located at the intersection of Molenbergweg / Steegstraat in Herkenbosch.
