Description

[FØRSTE VERDENSMARKE]

Da skudene pludselig lød i byen den 19. august 1914, blev den tyske kommandant Stenger skudt ned på balkonen af borgmester Tielemans' hus. I de følgende timer blev der sat ild til huse, og mænd, kvinder og børn blev jaget til den Store Marked. Der ventede de i flere timer, usikre på deres skæbne. I de følgende timer ville to grupper gidsler blive ført ud af byen, og de uskyldige borgere blev skudt.

Du ser her mange minder om krigshandlingerne: krigsmonumentet, den røde postkasse, hvor skuddet mod Stenger skulle være blevet affyret, og borgmester Tielemans' hus. Tag et øjeblik til at kigge på informationsskiltet og læs begivenhederne i detaljer. Se også på de smukt genopbyggede huse.
