Memorial Heule remembers survivors of 2 world wars: "We didn't know our father was in the resistance."

The War Association to Remember (WAR) unveiled a memorial in Heule honoring survivors of the two World Wars. The memorial features four granite panels listing 144 names, commemorating veterans, civilian workers, and resistance members. Many families discovered their relatives' hidden wartime contributions upon seeing their names. For instance, Francine and Philippe Dendievel learned their father was in the resistance after seeing his name on the memorial. The initiative aims to bring forgotten stories to light, allowing families to reconnect with their history. Bibiane Detavernier shared memories of her father’s secret missions during the war, highlighting the importance of remembering these sacrifices.
