In memory of the soldiers and civilians who died during the Second World War in this area of Flanders as victims of nazis.
Let us remember the allied soldiers who were killed or injured during the fighting, the British and French prisoners who were murdered here in 1940, the civilian victims of Wormhout, Esquelbecq and Ledringhem, the members of the Resistance Movement who died in concentration camps or were shot by firing squad and the population who suffered throughout 1562 long days of occupation, requisition and privation.
