Ieper (Ypres) Overview

Ypres (Ieper in Dutch), set among the low, gentle slopes of the West Flanders Heuvelland (Hill Country), owed its early prosperity to a textile industry that peaked in the 13th century. Over the centuries, the handsome town was victimized by one war after another and became a ghost of its former self. By far the most devastating was World War I (1914-18)—the "war to end all wars"—when hardly a brick was left standing after 4 years of violent bombardments. Many visitors come to Ypres (pronounced ee-pruh) to pay homage to those who fell on the surrounding battlefields and rest in the many military cemeteries on the green breast of the Heuvelland.
