Aarschot and Tongerlo (B) (14 photos)

Like Leuven, Aarschot is a town with a rich history that was laid in ashes by the Germans in 1914, during the first months of WW1. Lying on the river Demer with a populaton of about 30,000, it still has a remarkably authentic period feel. (photos taken on 2014-12-28)
