In addition to Beaufort's works, there are many monuments to be seen in De Panne. Download the heritage app on your smartphone and select the tour 'Monumentenroute De Panne - Adinkerke' or pick up the brochure 'De Panne, beeld voor beeld' at the Tourist Office and discover which visual heritage our municipality is particularly rich in. Here is a teaser…
Leopold I monument
At the end of the Esplanade, there is the large bronze statue of King Leopold I. It is here where our first king set foot on Belgian soil.
Pier Kloeffe
In the middle of the dunes, on the beach, there is the bronze statue of our most famous fisherman Petrus Decreton, alias Pier Kloeffe, gazing at the sea. The sculpture is an enlargement of the 30 cm statue that painter Louis Van den Eynde from Anderlecht, a friend of Pier, made.
