Tips

🇧🇪 Herwig Aertbeliën

May 15, 2024

This monument was erected in honor of the 7th Line Regiment, which stubbornly held out at this location between October 17 and 23, 1914, and was able to hold back the German advance for 7 days (and nights).

During the 'Battle of the Yser' the 7th line lost 600 soldiers and 48 officers. In addition to the death toll, there was also a very high number of injured people.

For this brave performance, the regiment was awarded the highest decoration: the Cross of the Order of Leopold.
