Zaffelare is a small village in East-Flanders with a history of growing flowers, azaleas especially. It also happens to be where our youngest daughter lives. 

Situated in the wide outskirts of Ghent. Not that far off from the Dutch border and as such, the "Hollandstellung" ran through it.

A defence lines of bunkers build by the German army during WW I to close off the unoccupied Netherlands.

Still some remnants left to this day, like this one.

As you can see, there's a kind of ladder and some stairs to get to the top.

Next to the historical significance, the bunker is also a "haven" for bats :). Hence the sign - removed from the photos though

#7 is a strong image, followed by #2 for me. B&W makes them special too.
