Forge War Into Eternal Peace Monument

Highlight • Monument

This memorial was erected on September 11, 1994 to commemorate the Battle of Moerbrugge, which killed 52 Canadian soldiers, more than 100 German soldiers and 12 Belgian civilians in September 1944. The monument from 1949 was integrated into a peace monument in 2018 and is a listed building.

The sculpture was made from an M10 Wolverine tank destroyer, which was disassembled on site and transformed into a work of art. One plaque bears the names of civilian casualties and another bears the names of fallen Canadians.

Beverhoutsveld Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

The Veldkapel (Field Chapel) or Beverhoutsveldkapel (Beverhout Field Chapel) is a chapel near Moerbrugge. The Marian Chapel is located on the corner of Veldstraat and Beverhoutstraat, on the border of Oedelem and Oostkamp.

It is a neo-Gothic chapel under a slate gable roof. At the front is a large door flanked by two blind windows. There are two windows along each side. The rear is rounded. Atop the chapel stands a small bell tower at the front and a cross at the back. The door and windows are painted reddish brown.

Inside stands a large statue of the Virgin Mary on a wooden pedestal. Below this stands a bench for offerings (flowers, candles) and thanksgiving. There is also an iron candlestick and about ten prayer chairs.

A narrow path surrounds the chapel. The chapel is surrounded by several trees. A picnic table now stands in the grassy area behind the chapel, offering a beautiful view of the Beverhout Field.

Ezelpoort (Donkey Gate)

Highlight • Monument

It's a fun way to get to the city center. The Ezelstraat has many nice little shops and restaurants. You will also find a number of hostels for a low budget to stay one or more nights. On the Eiermarkt, on your left, you will find the 'Loge' of Pieter Aspe, a famous writer.
