Brothers in Arms Memorial

Highlight • Monument

Special Memorial that will move every visitor.
A tragedy beautifully depicted in a work of art.
The madness of warfare is depicted here and leaves no one untouched.
We Will Remember Them

Don't forget to say hello in the nearby "Cafe Taverne de Dreve". This is a nice place with a nod to the past...
A nice place where you can simply eat and drink at democratic prices. The pasta dishes are highly recommended. There is a large playground for children on the outdoor terrace. The interior contains many references to the deployment of the ANZAC in the Ypres Salient.
A treasure trove of valuable pieces are exhibited here on the attic floor. A hidden gem...
The owner Johan is a man with a life goal. We have great admiration for all the work he has already accomplished, including Brothers-In-Arms Memorial Park
Hats off Johan, you are helping to ensure that the Great War will never be forgotten.
Many generations later will be grateful to you for this...

Black Watch Corner Memorial

Highlight • Monument

This statue of a Black Watch-Soldier is located on the southwestern edge of the Polygon Wood and stands in almost the same place where they made history. At this location, "Black Watch Corner" the German advance stopped on November 10/11, 1914. The memorial is a permanent tribute to the fortitude of the legendary Black Watch Regiment. During WW1, almost 9,000 soldiers of this Regiment were killed and more than 20,000 were wounded.

Lys Towpath: Menen–Wervik

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful route from Menen to Lauwe along the north side of the Leie. This part is largely car-free. Connects to the Leie Lauwe-Menen segment. Ideal for walking, touring cycling, running or cycling. Unfortunately here is a passage where you have to leave the towpath for a while through Galloo (metal processing company)
