    A pleasant shady location for a picnic is also a historical location that was part of the Antwerp Defence Line during WWII. The Anti-tank ditch was dug in the period 1937 - 1939 to defend Antwerp. There was a lock bunker at various locations along the route. These lock bunkers were built to keep the water level at the right level. Today you can relax in the shade of the flanked trees at a picnic table. Just a hundred meters away there is a Memorial tree for both world wars.
