The Trench of Death (Dodengang) in Diksmuide is a unique World War I memorial site. These authentic trenches along the Yser River are the only preserved trench system in Belgium.
During your visit, you walk through the narrow passages where Belgian soldiers fought and lived under harsh conditions, very close to the German lines. Information panels, images and an interactive visitor centre bring the history to life.
From the watchtower, you have an impressive view of the landscape and the Yser River. The Trench of Death is a place of remembrance, respect and history — ideal for those who want to learn more about WWI.
A visit to the Trench of Death in Diksmuide is a moving and educational experience in the heart of Flanders Fields.
