Throughout Flanders, and also in Londerzeel, there are statues and memorials that refer to the past. However, we often pass them by without reflecting on the story behind them. With the 'Beeldschone Verhalen' project, the initiators aim to make these monuments shine again and bring the stories to life.
Residents of Londerzeel who know of a statue or memorial that deserves a refresh are encouraged to report it to the Leisure Services department. Together with the municipality, they will then assess whether the proposal can be submitted.
Selected proposals have a chance to receive a guided cleaning by the Monumentenwacht (Monument Watch) and the opportunity to tell the story behind the Londerzeel monument. More information is available via the website of 'Beeldschone verhalen - Het Verhaal van Vlaanderen leeft'.
