    Take a good view of the Vauban remparts and enjoy its peacefulness.
      Old records of Ypres go back to the 11th century as "Iprensis" and "Ipera". The name would come from the river Ieperlee, formerly called Ypres. It was a founded city that industrialized early and grew into the third city of the county of Flanders, but then experienced a decline. The cloth industry collapsed. During the First World War, the Ypres was on the frontline and was razed to the ground. A historicizing reconstruction was chosen that revived the city. In the 21st century, Ypres attracts tourism from home and abroad.

        Beautiful cycle path around the former southern part of the fortress.
