Winding Path Through the Polders

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Just behind the coastline, in the polders, there are many small, narrow winding lanes that have little traffic. Nice for cycling, running, walking.

King Albert I Monument (Westfront Nieuwpoort)

Highlight • Monument

The King Albert I Monument in Nieuwpoort was erected in 1938 in honour of King Albert I and the Belgian troops during the First World War. The monument, designed by Julien de Ridder, is circular with a diameter of 30 metres and consists of twenty columns made of brick from the IJzer valley. In the centre is an equestrian statue of King Albert I, made by sculptor Karel Aubroeck. On top of the ring beam is a walkway with orientation tables that offer a beautiful view over the IJzer plain. Below the monument is the interactive visitor centre Westfront Nieuwpoort, which tells the story of the flooding of the polder plain in 1914.

Diksmuide Market Square

Highlight • Historical Site

The market of Diksmuide is a lively and historic place in the center of the city. On the Grote Markt in Diksmuide, merchants have been offering their merchandise at the weekly Monday market since the thirteenth century. Now there is also the farmer's market on Saturday afternoon, where local producers sell their delicious farm products in an atmospheric market.
Diksmuide is also known as the Butter City. The Boterhalle and the Boter- en Kaasfeesten on Whit Monday bear witness to this. The statue 'Het Manneke uit de Mane' is the symbol of Flemish humor that is guarded by the 'Orde van het Manneke', while the statue of General-Baron Jacques reminds us of the Battle of Diksmuide in 1914.
The center of Diksmuide received a thorough facelift. The aim of the project was to make the center of Diksmuide more attractive. The Grote Markt is now a pleasant square. The trees, benches and water elements make it really cozy.
