The executions were carried out in secret and the victims were buried anonymously. A number of the resistance fighters killed in Rieme (who - since the Rieme execution site had to make way for the Kluizendok - are also commemorated here) were found in a mass grave in Hechtel-Eksel (Limburg). As a result, it is still unclear how many people died there. Today, this place is a green zone for peace and contemplation, where we commemorate the resistance fighters. The execution site was protected as a landscape in 1966, because it is important for history and must be preserved for future generations.

The Groote Gat near Koewacht is a remnant of a creek that reminds of a dike breach in the distant past. The water in the creek is fresh, unlike most creeks in Zeeland that have brackish or even salt water.

Evides supplies water from the surrounding polders and lowers it into the ground from special infiltration channels. Soil organisms purify the supplied water. We then pump the water out of the ground via shallow drains and make it suitable for our customers in a purification system. Most of the water is intended for industry. But in case of emergency, we can also supply drinking water to the residents of Hulst here. The soil in the water extraction area consists of sand. The soil is too poor for agriculture, but the forests provide space for all kinds of plants and animals that are not common in Zeeland. The water extraction forests consist mainly of exotic trees that have been planted for forestry. But there are also old pedunculate oaks and beech trees, which provide shelter for birds, insects and mammals. There are small-scale fields around Sint Jansteen, which we sow with old grain varieties. Part of the crop remains in the winter so that birds can still find food. Bushes and small trees at the edges of the fields provide space for special insects. Partridges, yellow wagtails, meadow pipits and skylarks breed among the wild field weeds. Cultivated crops and nature conservation reinforce each other in this beautiful Zeeland-Flemish area.

With its neighboring forts Sint-Joseph and Sint Livinus, Fort Sin-Jacob is part of the Spanish Line of Communication between the locks of Ghent and Hulst. The fort was constructed in 1634 as a simple, square defense structure in the sea wall. a moat more than 10 meters wide surrounded a courtyard that could be reached via a bridge. At the center of the fort was a guardhouse 'watchtower' to monitor the wide tidal area between the line and the Land of Axel against attacks by State Armies. In the courtyard there is a cannon that faces north (Staatse Legers).

The Groote Gat is a remnant of the military inundation in the battle against the French. When this dike was breached, the polders around Koewacht were flooded. When the dike was repaired, people went around the deepest part of the channel, hence the bend. The deepest part has remained as a creek. Now this pond is an excellent place for recreational fishermen and waterfowl. Don't forget your binoculars and enjoy life on and around the creek.
