This is the log of an at first impossible project, a dream come true, but also of a long and difficult struggle. Only goal: giving back Poelkapelle it's tank on the marketplace, once it's major tourist attraction !
Thanks to the donators, volunteers and cooperating firms !

On monday 21st april 2008 we moved the almost finished frame-work from the workingplace of Herman Persyn Bruggestraat in Poelkapelle to the other side of the village : we were welcome in the old stairfactory of Georges Buyse ! We were very lucky the local firm Vandenbroucke out of Passendale were prepared to do the move supporting the project.
