파스헨달(Passendale)에 위치한 타인 코트 묘지(Tyne Cot Cemetery)는 세계에서 가장 큰 영연방 묘지이며, 제1차 세계 대전에서 전사한 약 12,000명의 군인들이 영면하고 있는 곳입니다. 이 인상적인 기념비는 1917년 피비린내 나는 파스헨달 전투가 벌어졌던 전장의 독일군 벙커 잔해 주변에 세워졌습니다. 오늘날 이 묘지는 플랑드르에서 가장 중요하고 방문객이 많은 국제적인 추모 장소 중 하나로, 전 세계 방문객들에게 '대전(Great War)'이 남긴 엄청난 인명 피해를 상기시킵니다. 실종된 군인 35,000명의 이름이 새겨진 거대한 벽은 평화와 기억을 향한 끊임없는 탐구의 실질적인 상징이기도 합니다.

성곽과 주변 지역이 현재 복원 중입니다. 이미 훌륭해 보이며, 미래에는 환상적일 것입니다. 아주 멋진 작은 식당과 무료 화장실도 있습니다.

Tyne Cot Cemetery is the largest Commonwealth cemetery in the world, located near Passchendaele. It was established in October 1917 and contains over 11,000 graves of soldiers who died during the First World War. The site was strategically important during the Battle of Passchendaele and was used as an advanced dressing station after its capture by the 3rd Australian Division on 4 October 1917. The cemetery was designed by Sir Herbert Baker and includes an impressive Cross of Sacrifice, built on a former German bunker. The cemetery was significantly expanded after the Armistice to include graves from nearby battlefields and smaller cemeteries.

A poignant anecdote about Tyne Cot Cemetery concerns the father and son, Lieutenant Colonel Harry Moorhouse and Captain Ronald Moorhouse. Both served with the 4th Battalion, the King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry, and were killed within an hour of each other during the Third Battle of Ypres. Harry Moorhouse was seeking medical attention for his badly wounded son when he himself was killed. Their bodies were never recovered, but their names are immortalised on the Tyne Cot Memorial.

Nowadays the castle is a luxury hotel/restaurant and conference centre (Restaurant realised in 1990 and hotel built in 1996 by the then organisers of the Rock Torhout festival). On the other side of the Torhout - Oostende road lies the domain of the Wijnendale castle.
