The fort of Breendonk is located near Willebroek. It was used by the Nazis as a concentration camp during World War II. It served as a labor camp and as a transit camp. It is the only such camp in Western Europe that has remained completely intact. This camp has become an important memorial to the war for Belgium and has been established as the "National Memorial of the Fort of Breendonk".
The fort is open to the public, who can take a look into the world of the prisoners. In the courtyard, one can see the graves and, if one follows the path along the fort, the gallows with the memorial plaques for those who were executed there.
