The death wire was an electrical barrier on the border between Belgium and the Netherlands during World War I. The wire of death was erected from the Zwin in Knokke to the suburbs of Aachen. He was on Belgian territory, but did not follow the border very closely. The border between Knokke and the Drielandenpunt is almost 450 kilometers long.

This type of border fortification is probably unique and it is especially great that a kind of mini-museum has been created here. Very informative and definitely worth a visit.
