할렌 최고의 사이클링 경로

건조기 같아요...

이 박물관은 1914년 8월 12일 할렌에서 벌어진 은색 투구(Slag der Zilveren Helmen) 전투의 기억을 생생하게 간직하고 있습니다. 이 전투는 기병 사단 규모의 마지막 대규모 전투였으며, 제1차 세계 대전 중 연합군의 도움 없이 벨기에가 독일군을 상대로 거둔 유일한 승리였습니다. 30제곱미터의 인상적인 모형을 통해 전투의 경과를 따라갈 수 있습니다. 이곳에서 화려한 유니폼, 종군 화가 제임스 티리알의 그림, 아서 브뤼헤의 일기, 증언(비디오 몽타주) 그리고 물론 유명한 '은색 투구'와 같은 독특한 실제 유물 컬렉션을 발견할 수 있습니다. 운영 시간: 5월 1일부터 10월 31일까지 / 수요일부터 일요일까지 / 14:00부터 17:00까지. 가이드 동반 투어는 사전 예약 시에만 가능합니다.

검은 악마들

Hill on which a vineyard is located near the village of Molenbeek.

The forest is characterized by a wide variety of tree species of various ages. Surrounded by agricultural lands and old standard orchards, some trees in this forest have survived since 1900. It's no wonder that tree-dwellers like the squirrel and the woodpecker thrive in Sint-Jansberg. Even the deadwood teems with life. Its history is closely linked to the neighboring Carthusian Monastery, so the estate forest also holds significant archaeological value. So far, eight hectares of the field surrounding the Carthusian Monastery has been reforested with native tree species. Sint-Jansberg, along with Rotbroek and Gorenbroek, forms part of the larger Borchbeemden area.

The cyclist carabiniers initially defended Halen, which was soon captured by the Germans. The Belgian troops then withdrew to the western edge of Halen, bordered by the railway embankment, where they set up machine guns. The cyclists withdrew a second time, towards the IJzerwinningshoeve (Iron Extraction Farm), where the main Belgian force was stationed. But just after crossing the sunken road of the Betserbaan (where the monument stands), the German cavalry launched a charge, trapping the cyclists between the Belgian defenses in the IJzerwinningshoeve and the advancing German cavalry. The cyclists were literally caught between two fires and suffered significant casualties. Inventory of Immovable Heritage: Halen Battlefield, https://id.erfgoed.net/erfgoedobjecten/300946

The carabinier cyclists earned their nickname because of their speed. Besides a rock from Elsenborn, where a training camp has been located since 1893, there is also a wooden cross behind the monument with the inscription "To the dead, Aux morts, Den Gefallenen" (To the dead, Aux morts, The fallen). The "European cross" was erected during the 75th anniversary commemoration in 1989 as a tribute to all the fallen, along with the planting of a weeping willow. A plaque with the inscription "Zwarte Duivels/ 12-08-1914" (Black Devils/12-08-1914) is attached to the large natural stone rock from Elsenborn, and in front you'll find the Black Devils' symbol. The information board tells you more about them and the role they played. In the video below, at 1:30, you can see the account of Private Jozef Declercq of the first battalion of the carabinier cyclists. Not about the firefight, but about the erection of a barricade on the road from Halen to Zelk. And you immediately see that the Black Devils performed various tasks in the defense of Halen, aided by farmers and civilians in this agricultural region. Halen itself was quickly captured, however, followed by the battle at the monument (see below). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaWUl2tI3xY
