Dadizele has been a renowned place of pilgrimage since the 15th century. Pilgrims worship the statue of Our Lady and Child there. Construction of the basilica began in 1857 in response to the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. Monsignor Malou, Bishop of Bruges, wanted a monumental church for his diocese to honor this dogma. The plans were by the English architect Welby Pugin. The church of Dadizele was elevated to a basilica in 1882 by Pope Leo XIII. Along with the Chapel of the Holy Blood in Bruges and the abbey church of Zevenkerken, the Basilica of Our Lady is the only basilica in the diocese. The beautiful stained-glass windows depict not only the history of the church but also various facts from the life of Mary. In the crypt, we see the tomb, spurs, gloves, and sword of Knight Jan van Dadizele. The basilica is a protected monument and remains very popular, especially during the pilgrimage months of May and September. Source: toerismedadizele.be

An interesting anecdote concerns the name of the cemetery. It refers to a chalet that stood in the hamlet before the war. This chalet served as a point of reference for the soldiers and gave the cemetery its name.

Lindenhoek Chalet Military Cemetery is a British military cemetery from the First World War, located in the hamlet of Lindenhoek, south of Kemmel. The cemetery was established in March 1915 by medical posts and combat units and remained in use until October 1917. After the war, approximately 130 more graves from the battlefields around Kemmel were added. The cemetery contains the graves of 317 soldiers, 69 of whom are unidentified. The cemetery has a rectangular plan and is slightly raised above street level, surrounded by a brick wall.
