    At the Battle of Londerzeel - also known as the Battle of Neeravert - on September 29, 1914, three officers and 127 soldiers were killed on the Belgian side. As a tribute to the fallen soldiers, Miss J. Orianne from Londerzeel had a monument erected on September 29, 1919 - on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the battle. The building is by architect Diongre. The following text can be read in both national languages:

    "To the officers and soldiers of the 12th Line Regiment, 1st, 3rd, 6th Regiment of Foot Hunters and Carabiniers killed in action at Londerzeel."

    The municipal council of Londerzeel restored the monument in 1990.

    On the occasion of the commemoration '100 years of the Great War', a plaque of honor for Miss J. Orianne was attached to the monument.
