From the Middle Ages to after the Second World War : a fantastic voyage of discovery for the whole family.

Prince Karel Memorial

Includes the Prince’s house as well as an exposition on the Prince’s life (1903 – 1983), who was Count of Flanders and Regent of Belgium (1944–1950) and on the history of the domain that goes back to the time of King Leopold II (1900), including the presence of German coastal fortifications during both the First and the Second World War; and finally an introduction to your visit of the Atlantic Wall.

Atlantic Wall Open-air Museum

Archaeological Museum Walraversijde

You start with an audio-visual representation of the history of the domain before visiting four reconstructed and fully furnished fishermen’s houses from late medieval Walraversijde.
