Dover Castle is het grootste kasteel van Engeland. Het werd in de 12e eeuw gebouwd. Waarschijnlijk stonden er op deze plaats in de ijzertijd al forten. Dover is door de eeuwen heen van strategisch belang geweest. Tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog speelde het ook een belangrijke rol. Onder het kasteel bevinden zich de ‘wartime tunnels’. Dover Castle is the largest castle in England. It was built in the 12th century. Probably there were forts at this place in the Iron Age. Dover has been of strategic importance throughout the centuries. During the Second World War it also played an important role. Under the castle are the 'wartime tunnels'. #magicstones #natuurfoto #nature #wanderlust #engeland #england #dover #dovercastle https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv35se1lJWP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c03wbv96lp92

After a hundred years, the scars of WWI remain. Millions of high explosive shells were fired. In the forests of Belgium and France located along the former Western Front, many evidences of the trauma of war caused by WWI still can be found. It was truly the world’s first modern mass destruction.

The passage of a hundred years since WWI has not healed the land in certain places. These are a series of deep craters caused by high explosives strategically placed beneath the opposing army’s front line. They were placed there via offensive tunnels that were mere crawl spaces which sometimes took over a year to dig for the purpose of a single explosion. These were truly weapons of modern mass destruction and terror that had the potential to make hundreds and sometimes thousands of human beings virtually disappear, in a split second, with almost no trace of their bodies to be found. These mine craters can be seen by the public at the Vimy Ridge Canadian Memorial not far from Arras in Northern France.

Voorpremière gezien van Stan & Ollie, over hun toer in Engeland en Ierland in 1953. Mooi portret van de twee grootste komieken. Ingetogen en prachtige biografie. Een aanrader voor de échte Laurel & Hardy fan! Ik heb genoten! (bij Enschede, Netherlands) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br8czCVl3dz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wgubwcjgdmk
