Knight Karel Stroo (1793 - 1873) was the first mayor of Eeklo after the independence of Belgium. He was a benefactor and financed, among other things, the construction of the Gesticht for elders and orphans, the Sacred Heart Clinic (now developed into the AZ Alma hospital), the Sint-Vincentiuskerk, the Paterskerk, ...
