Averbode is well known for its centuries old Premonstratensian monastery. Research gave me the following information. The foundation of this monastery dates back to 1134. So far this borough has 78 premonstratensians wherefrom 38 reside in the monastery, the rest live and work elsewhere at home and abroad.
