125 - 126 - 130 - 10 - 128 - 127 - 125

Get to know Fort Liezele and walk your way through a hundred years of (wartime) history. Visit the recently opened Fort Liezele Museum, drink a local beer in the fort's pub afterwards and spend the night. Yes, in the fort itself! But be sure to leave the fort as well, because around Liezele a world full of culture, nature and gastronomy awaits you.
