In 1989, the water mill of Pede, lain in Sint-Gertrudis-Pede (Schepdaal),was bought by the municipality Dilbeek. After a very thorough restoration the mill has been since 2002 grind capable.Two times per month demonstrations are given. In the baking house regular bread is baked. According to some sources Pieter Bruegel painted the water mill more than 400 years ago, among other things on the paintings "The return of the herd" and "The Magpie on the gallows".
