At the corner of Rue de Wervicq and Chemin du Bonnie au Seigle stands a chapel with a small flowerbed and a bench in front. Inside, the altar features, among other things, a statue of the Virgin Mary and a crucifix. A memorial stone is set into the right side wall of the chapel, commemorating the site where Marshal de Turenne defeated the Spanish army of the Prince of Ligne on September 11, 1658.

Memorial originally erected for the Wervik military and civilian victims of the First World War. The memorial, designed by Jules Bernaerts, was initially erected on the corner of the church square at the Sint-Medardus Church, at the intersection of Koestraat and Magdalenastraat. The memorial was unveiled on May 13, 1923, during a "Great Military and Patriotic Celebration." After the Second World War, the names of the 12 soldiers from Wervik who fell in 1940 were inscribed on a plaque. The names of six resistance fighters who lost their lives during that war were also inscribed on the plaque. In 1965, the memorial was moved and adapted (the background wall was demolished, the French text was removed, etc.) and a second time in January 1970, to its current location. The statue is two meters high and exceptionally detailed. It depicts a Belgian soldier from the war year of 1918. He is wearing the "cap coat" of the "khaki uniform," the uniform introduced in the Belgian army from 1915 onwards. He is not wearing a headdress, but his head is bandaged. The Belgian "Adrian" helmet hangs on his left hip: the front with the lion's head facing upward. The helmet is deeply scratched at the left front by a bullet. In his left hand, he carries laurel branches as a symbol of honor and victory. The statue shows that this was a hard-fought victory. In his right hand, he holds a rifle.
