Demarcation Stone De Klijte

Description

This is the spot where the German advance was brought to a halt - a fact that is commemorated by a demarcation stone. 22 of these demarcation stones were erected between 1921 and 1927 at various places on the old front line in Belgium. The stones were an initiative of the Belgian Touring Club and the Ypres League. Their locations were decided by the Belgian High Command, and usually marked the furthest points of the German advance into Belgium. In the course of the years, just 3 of these stones have disappeared. Of the remaining 19, the inscriptions in Dutch French and English were removed from17 of them by the occupying German forces during the Second World War.
