Sas Boezinge during the Great War:
Brief sketch: The lock was therefore almost the most important place in Boezinge from a military-strategic perspective, in fact the stretch of the canal between Boezinge railway bridge and northward Steenstrate. From April 1915 to July 1917, the British, French and Belgians were on the left, and the Germans on the other bank.
