Hiking
What remains is not the biography of the individual, just his number and the result of his work - the cultural landscape of the Wortel colony.

Hiking
For us, this is a conscious tradition to visit the vagabonds of yesteryear during the Christmas period (alternating Merksplas - Wortel).
•September 26, 2023
Cycling
The White Crosses are silent witnesses to the vagabond past.
The vagabonds were given a number when they arrived in the Colony. On many white crosses in the vagabond cemetery there are lead plaques with only a number, no name.
In the meantime, several crosses have also been given names.
