Objective / Goal of the activity
To learn about the first world war.
Description
Ypres is known as an important battlefield in World War I. It has a very impressive war memorial and endless fields of graves, a famous sight thanks to the poem "In Flanders Fields" from John McCae.🌷 But also the city centre is a must see in the province of West Flanders!
At 8:00, we will meet at Hessenplein and go to Ypres together by bus. We will go to see Tyne Cot Cementary and Ypres city centre where we will visit Flanders field museum and the last post.
Around 22:00, we will be back in Antwerp (this can differ).
