The Prof. C. Heymans Square, actually a dune relic, is named after Cornelius Heymans (¦Ghent 1892 ?Knokke 1968). Doctor med. C. Heymans had his villa in Het Zoute and received the Nobel Prize in 1938 for his research regarding the role of pressoreceptors and chemoreceptors of the cardio-aortic and carotid sinus region in respiratory regulation. In 1998, a memorial pillar was erected in the square in memory of this eminent scholar.
