The Polderhoek is currently a forgotten piece of land near the A19 motorway, next to the Witches Monument. It is almost unthinkable, but during the war there was a beautiful park in the Polderhoek valley. The southern Polderhoek Castle stood in the middle of the park. The Polderhoek Castle, popularly known as the “Flower Castle”, was one of the most beautiful castles in the region. The castle was built around 1850, was over 30 hectares in size and had Italian architectural influences. From the beginning of the First World War, the beautiful park was occupied by the Germans. In 1914, the front ran right through it and the park was then on German territory. On 4 October 1917, British troops succeeded in taking the northeastern part of the park. However, they did not get any further and the offensive was stopped on the ridge. The entire area was shot to pieces and the Reutelbeek, which flowed through the park, formed a wide swamp. Triggered?

The Blankaart is freely accessible from sunrise to sunset. The visitor centre (currently still in the castle, but will 'soon' move to a new building closer to the car park) is open at least every week from Wednesday to Sunday from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m.

The castle's coach house has been the workshop or studio for Natuurpunt volunteers who are involved in nature management on the Blankaart for years. Natuurpunt was able to purchase that site in 2011. Natuurpunt volunteers provide permanent staff in the visitors' centre in the castle. They provide reception, provide information to visitors and run a small cafeteria. This year, work will start on a new studio and a new reception in the visitors' domain. Because it also became apparent that restoring the studio was not feasible, we decided with Natuurpunt to demolish the studio and build something new there with a dual function: studio and reception. After all, the accessibility of the current visitors' centre is literally insufficiently accessible: you have to overcome quite a few (fairly high) stairs. The new building in a wooden frame is very close to the car park, will only be on the ground floor and visitors will be guided from the car park past the reception.

Although the fame of this place as "Peace Mill" refers to the First World War (a monument value that only acquired its current form in the summer of 2013), the history of the mill goes back to the third quarter of the 18th century. In 1766, a wooden post mill was built here. In 1879, the then owner replaced the wooden mill with the stone tower mill, supplemented a year later with a steam engine (in an outbuilding), so that milling could also take place when there was no wind. The current outbuilding dates from after WWI (1920).

The Vredesmolen (also "Old mill", "Van Couillie's mill" or "Shooted mill") is a former windmill in the Belgian village of Klerken (Houthulst). The former wooden grain and oil mill is located at the highest point of the village (43 meters) and was therefore used as a lookout post by the Germans during the First World War. During the final offensive it was captured by the Allies, but the Germans had already left the mill via an underground passage. The mill is a rare example of a mill ruin and became a protected monument on April 1, 1999. On the same date it also received its official name "Peace Mill". source: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vredesmolen
