EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the devastating ruins of Louvain in 1914, the Hotel de Ville (Town Hall) stood as an oasis, almost untouched by the destruction that engulfed the historic Belgian city. The once vibrant and important town, known for its rich Flemish history and iconic landmarks, was left in ruins after a fierce battle during World War I. The church of St. Pierre, a 12th-century architectural masterpiece, was left roofless, and old Flemish houses were laid in ruins. But amidst the desolation, the 15th-century Hotel de Ville remained largely unscathed, a testament to its historical significance and resilience. The image captures the stark contrast between the destruction and the surviving town hall, an important reminder of Louvain's past and its ability to endure even in the face of adversity. This photograph, taken in September 15, 1914, is an essential piece of history, providing a glimpse into a time when a once-thriving city was reduced to ruins, with the Hotel de Ville standing as a solitary reminder of its past glory.
