't Zand, Alphen-Chaam

[3] 't Zand is a villa ward and recreational site near Alphen.

[4] In 1939, a little chapel dedicated to Saint Willibrord was erected on the Oude Maastrichtsebaan in 't Zand.

According to legend, Willibrord baptised people from Alphen near a well and it turned into a site of pilgrimage.

Father Binck together with the archaeologist Joan Willems set out to find the spot and discovered a 2.5 metres (8 ft 2 in) loam well in the forest.

It was restored in stone and a chapel was built on top of the well.
