Guided tour Procession park Ommel
Each year in May, around 50,000 visitors come to see the statue of Our Lady with Child, which can be admired in the church. The church soon turned out to be too small for the large number of visitors, and so it was decided to construct a processing park with an outdoor church.
The park features a Calvary Hill, a Lourdes Grotto, and 14 Stations of the Cross—places for prayer, reflection, and inspiration. There are also six chapels that depict the story of the Marian statue in Ommel. Each is a unique artwork, carved from sandstone. The Calvary Hill and the six chapels are designated national monuments.
Guided tours can be booked through the Asten Tourist Office
The price for the tour is €2,50 per person. Children upto 7 years are free of charge The maximum group size is 15 persons.
