      The Deutscher Soldatenfriedhof Hooglede is a military cemetery in the Belgian municipality of Hooglede. The cemetery is located in the east of the village center. There are 8,257 fallen German soldiers from the First World War.

      It is one of the four major German cemeteries in Belgium, the others being in Vladslo, Menen and Langemark. In addition, there are also about 500 soldiers who fell during the First World War in Lommel.

        In front of the cemetery there are a series of information boards about the war history of Hooglede in general and this German cemetery in particular.
        To the left of the cemetery, in the parking lot, there is a QR code that leads you to the fictional nurse Ida. From the perspective of a care provider, she tells you a historically substantiated story about the course of the war and the misery she experienced. You can choose between a version with or without augmented reality.
        For this you only need to download the free app 'Een laatste groet' (from the App Store or Google Play Store).
