Woestijn ?
The name "Woestijn"?
Strange name at first sight but actually it is not : it is derived from 'wastine', a wasteland, undeveloped area in the early Middle Ages and perhaps overgrown with grasses, heather, shrubs and trees. Shepherds herded their flock there during the day. Until a few centuries ago there were such extensive wastines everywhere in Flanders and Brabant.
