Important curiosities in Malle include the [[Trappist Abbey of Westmalle]] and its [[Westmalle Brewery|brewery]], [[Renesse Castle]], the [[Scherpenberg mill]], [[Westmalle Castle]] which dates back to 1100, and the Castle of [[Blommerschot]]. The Chapel of [[Our Lady of Perpetual Help]] (Dutch: Onze-Lieve-Vrouw van Bijstand) at the Herentalsebaan was built by [[Leonard Pierre Joseph du Bus de Gisignies]] in 1837. In 1930 a [[Lourdes]] cave was added to the chapel (inaugurated on 7 May 1933), and in 1934 a [[Stations of the Cross]] was added in remembrance of King [[Albert I of Belgium]]. The sculptor of the latter was Simon Gossens.

Malle has three churches: the Church of [[Lawrence of Rome|Saint Lawrence]] (Dutch: Sint Laurentius, Oostmalle), the Church of [[Paul of Tarsus|Saint Paul]] (Dutch: Sint Paulus, Westmalle) and the Church of [[Martin of Tours|Saint Martin]] (Dutch: Sint Martinus, Westmalle). The most important local festival is called "Salphenkermis", which is held in the hamlet [[Salphen]] in honor of [[Anthony the Great|Saint Anthony]].

The forests of Herenbos, Molenbos (Drieboomkesberg), Bruulbergen and Schrabbenbos are also worth a visit.
