Owner's Message
The "In Flanders Fields" Museum presents the historical story of the First World War. The scenography focuses on the human experience. In this context, the museum tour also includes a visit to the belfry, from the top of which you can admire the city and the surrounding battlefields. Hundreds of authentic objects and images are presented in an innovative, life-like manner. Real people and interactive presentations bring the contemporary visitor face to face with people who experienced war a century ago. In this way, the museum adopts many points of view: the general and military-historical aspect is important, but also the relationship with the present, the past, as a human being and with society, in all the countries concerned.
