M&L | Bellewaarde in the Great War

(Monumenten, Landschappen & Archeologie, 2014)

Bellewaarde en zijn turbulente oorlogsverleden

‘M&L – Monumenten, Landschappen & Archeologie’ (year 33, nr. 3) features an interesting study on the war history of Bellewaarde (Ypres). Especially Bellewaarde Wood, mostly untouched since 1918, hides many traces of the Great War. A combination of historical, archaeological and geophysical methods enabled the researchers to map many war traces, which make the war and the soldiers’ miserable conditions suddenly very tangible.
