On November 11, Lennik commemorates the end of World War I and pays tribute to all war victims, civilians and soldiers.

Today, November 11, we reflect on the value of peace and pass on the message ‘Never again war!’ to future generations. In Lennik, the commemoration is held in honor of the veterans, who bear witness to courage, loss, and hope.
Traditionally, floral tributes are laid at the memorials in the various village centers. The official procession in the center of Sint-Kwintens-Lennik will commence at 9:30 AM.
In Sint-Martens-Lennik, a Eucharist service will take place at 10 AM, followed by a musical tribute.
The fifth-grade students from GBS 't Rakkertje will bring their craftwork to the memorial in Eizeringen on Tuesday, November 10.
