Dead wire round (4/14) 14 -18 Achelse Kluis - Kessenich

The LF Cycling Club also wants to contribute to drawing more attention to the Death Wire from 14-18. Especially now that there is also an exhibition in the Achelse Kluis about the major explosion of the German ammunition trains at Hamont station in 1918. According to the ED, almost 30 municipalities are participating in this commemoration of the 350 km long electric border barrier in those years. The leader of a white crocus route to commemorate the death thread is the municipality of Maasmechelen, which will plant no fewer than 35,000 crocuses. At FKP 217 before the entrance to De Kluis you will find the first Death Wire reconstruction and upon returning after border post 217 at FKP 216 and between FKP 38 then on the Route for FKP 85 on the Weerterweg near the Smeetshof, so here a little further than the border cycling to also reconstruct the wire  can be viewed at this nature point. And even after FKP 17, a very nice memorial point was created, there at the border marker.
