A walk through the Resistance in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert

On May 10, 1940, Nazi Germany invaded Belgium. Eighteen days later, King Leopold III surrendered, even as his troops were still fighting valiantly on the battlefields. Belgium was once again under occupation; the freedom so hard-won in 1918 had lasted only 22 years. The occupier enacted laws and selected its new victims: Jews, communists, Freemasons, Roma, trade unionists, journalists, and lawyers. Across the country, women and men rejected this state of affairs and decided to resist, whether by force of arms or not. Woluwe-Saint-Lambert was also marked by these fighters in the shadows, as evidenced by commemorative plaques, street names, and monuments.
