    Artist and Meisenaar Paul Gregoir has captured his many years of admiration for Eddy Merckx in a work of art as a tribute to his idol. The artwork is not only a tribute, it also symbolizes our cycling-loving municipality, with many well-known and lesser-known former cyclists and countless cycling tourists. The statue is located on the Eddy Merckx route. Tramlaan 8, 1861 Wolvertem
    (Municipality of Meise)

      Monument with a beautiful symbolism!

      Translated by Google •

        The artwork depicts cyclist Eddy Merckx (June 17, 1945) as a great winner. Eddy radiates triumphant satisfaction, success, pride, and inner joy. The pursuers feel defeated and disappointed. The five climbers struggle and pant to reach the summit.
        In short: the artwork honors Merckx's greatest career as a cyclist.
        Eddy achieved a total of 525 victories.
