Important curiosities of Malle are the Trappist Abbey of Westmalle and its brewery, the Castle de Renesse, 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 (sculptor was Simon Gossens).

Malle has three churches, the Church of Saint Lawrence (Dutch: Sint Laurentius, Oostmalle), the Church of Saint Paul (Dutch: Sint Paulus, Westmalle) and the Church of Saint Martin (Dutch: Sint Martinus, Westmalle). The most important local festivity is the so-called "Salphenkermis" in the hamlet Salphen, with a procession devoted to Saint Anthony.

The forests of s Herenbos, Molenbos, Bruulbergen, and Schrabbenbos are worth a visit.
