remark: I had to change my photostore and so I also changed the photo lab. It seems, that this one can't handle conventional b&w-films. The two films I got back were both extremly overdeveloped. Bad luck.
This is a knocked gate on one side of the mountain, we found it through walking along the courtyard wall. Good news, I found a hole on the gate, I suppose I could make it through, hehe:) not sure what could be waiting for me inside though :(

The Menin Gate lists the names of more than 54,000 British and Commonwealth soldiers who perished in the war but have no known grave. As bodies are still uncovered in the surrounding countryside, they are buried in one of the WWI cemeteries. If the body can be identified, the name is removed from the Menin Gate.
The Menin Gate does not include the names of all those soldiers without a grave - it is not large enough to do so. An arbitrary cut-off date was chosen, and the remaining names - including those for soldiers from New Zealand and Newfoundland - are included on other memorials including the memorial at Tyne Cot Cemetery.
