Hidden Ypres: A Self-Guided Audio Tour

Despre activitate

From the ashes of World War I, Ypres rose and became a city dedicated to peace.

On this walking tour, you’ll wander the rebuilt streets of the historic Flemish city that was almost totally destroyed in the war. You’ll find out how Churchill wanted to preserve the ruined city, as it was, and see historic photos of the city taken during war time. But this tour isn’t only about war and destruction. I’ll also show you some of the city’s best coffee spots, romantic restaurants, and authentic bars where you can try a local West Flanders beer.

Starting on the main square outside Ypres Museum and ending at Menin Gate, you'll hearing fascinating stories about the war years including the 1914 Truce, the creation of The Wipers Times trench newspaper, and one of the loudest explosions in human history. You'll also find out about the vanished school that once taught the cemetery gardeners’ children.

You‘ll finish this walk with a better understanding of this ancient city‘s fascinating history.
