The name "17 October forest" refers to the day in 1918 when Lauwe was liberated.
On that day, Lieutenant George William Edendale WHITEHEAD & Second Lieutenant Reginald Hopkin Hill GRIFFITHS M.C. were shot down from the air by a German machine gun.
They died on the field of "Farm Verbrugge".

Wildlife Murals in the Preshoekbos Ecotunnel

Highlight • Monument

The Preshoek ecotunnel was opened in early 2021 and is the first of its kind in all of West Flanders. Large and small animals can safely move under the E403 via this tunnel. It increases traffic safety and ensures a better connection of the nature-rich zones in the vicinity of the Preshoekbos. In the summer of 2022, David Duits painted the dividing wall between the ecotunnel and the roadway, with animals of course: from owl to frog to hedgehog.
