Self Drive Ypres
A charming Flemish town and living museum
Ypres is a pretty town of medieval origin, surrounded by fantastic fortifications. Over the centuries it has been subjected to much torment and destruction. Although almost completely rebuilt following the tremendous devastation of the First World War, Ypres remains a living museum. Most buildings are relatively new but the skilled renovation of seventy years ago has made the weathered replicas now appear original. This small Flemish town is primarily for those interested in the Battlefields with extensive memorials and mementoes of World War One but do not be too surprised when you find both its charm and its beauty have seduced you.
The impressive In Flanders Fields Museum in the centre of Ypres has now re-opened following an extensive renovation and all our short break packages to Ypres include tickets to this unmissable attraction.
