The Passchendaele Memorial Park combines recreation and nature experience with the memory of the Battle of Passchendaele. Eight memorial gardens have been laid out in the park in the symbolic shape of a poppy. At the request of the Memorial Museum Passchendaele 1917, these gardens are filled in by the different nations that took part in the Battle of Passchendaele with a design that combines modern art, poetry and symbolic vegetation from that country.

During the commemoration years, the various gardens were opened. After a visit to the Passchendaele Museum, you can quietly reflect on the horrors of the First World War during a walk in the park. Thematic walks to Tyne Cot Cemetery and the Polygon Forest and a bike ride linking the WWI heritage in Zonnebeke also depart from the park.
