Re-bronzing under way at the Menin Gate
06 June 2012
Work is under way to clean and re-bronze the three large rings
in the roof of the Ypres (Menin Gate) Memorial.
Hanging scaffolds have been suspended through the roof to allow
our staff to carry out the work.
The renovation, which began on Monday 4 June, is expected to
take three weeks and should not cause any hindrance to the
public.

unique photos of the project and view the Menin Gate from an
entirely new perspective.
In addition, due to road works in the Frenchlaan, which is the
road just beyond the Menin Gate, the road through the Gate will be
closed off for vehicle traffic from 1 June until 23 July 2012.
