The Monument des Trois Batailles in Cassel commemorates three important battles:
Battle of Cassel (1071): This battle was won by Robert I of Flanders, also known as Robert the Frisian.
Battle of Cassel (1328): Philip VI of France was victorious in this battle.
Battle of Peene (1677): This battle was won by Philip of France, defeating the anti-French coalition led by William of Orange.
These battles mark important moments in the history of the French Flanders region.
