Himelin Life story
Saint Himelin was an Irish or Scottish priest who, returning from a pilgrimage to Rome, fell ill when passing through Vissenaken. He is said to have been the brother of Rumbold, patron saint of Mechelen. The legend of Saint Himelin states that in Vissenaken he asked a girl for some water.
