The Menin Gate, dedicated to the thousands of Allied soldiers who died at Ypres during the First World War and whose graves are unknown.
At 8pm every evening buglers still pay tribute by sounding the Last Post.
The nearby #CommonwealthWarGravesCommission information centre has a brilliant Lego model of the Gate.
