In every village, in every neighborhood, there are monuments, sometimes in a pitiful state, that need some revitalization. They are precious witnesses of our past," emphasizes Ben Weyts, notably citing the statue of the priest-worker Adolf Daens in Alost, which has been recently restored. Our buildings and landscapes tell the stories of those who came before us. Some are buried in oblivion, others are part of the collective memory. By telling them, we bring the stories of yesterday and today to life. We want to keep the history of Flanders alive and continue, all together, to write it. The preservation of Flemish artistic heritage is the responsibility of all. Regional authorities cannot bear this responsibility alone. #Flandre #Patrimoine #Culture (translated)
