| Rond het kerkje van de Alveringemse deelgemeente Oeren ontstond tijdens WO I een militaire begraafplaats. Hier liggen 508 Belgische soldaten begraven. Ooit stonden hier heel wat heldenhuldezerkjes, gekenmerkt door de letters AVVVVK. In februari 1918 werden deze letters op zo’n 38 graven besmeurd. Vandaag vind je op deze begraafplaats nog vijf heldenhuldezerkjes terug. | |

At one time there were many heroism tributes here, identified by the letters AVVVVK. In February 1918, these letters were smeared on some 38 graves. Today you can still find five heroism tributes in this cemetery. |
