The Wire of Death (De Doodendraad)

Highlight • Historical Site

In 1914, occupied Germany occupied Belgium, while the Netherlands remained neutral. The border residents, such as those of Hamont-Achel, had a hard time due to the construction of a hermetic barrier to the border. The German occupier wanted to prevent any contact with the free Netherlands and placed a deadly electrical barrier along the border for this purpose.

Since 2000, Hamont-Achel has had a reconstruction (adapted in 2015) of "Den droad" as it is popularly called. Alongside this reconstruction there are information boards that provide additional information about the original construction in 1916.
