GWALIA CEMETERY Belgium

GWALIA CEMETERY is located 8.5 Km west of Ieper town centre, on the Steentjesmolenstraat N333, a road leading from the Veurnseweg N8 connecting Ieper to Elverdinge and on to Veurne.

From Ieper town centre the Veurnseweg (N8), is reached via Elverdingsestraat, then turning right onto Haiglaan. Veurnseweg is a continuation of Haiglaan.

4 Km along the N8 Veurnseweg in the village of Elverdinge, lies the left hand turning onto the N333 Steentjesmolenstraat. 4.5 Km along this road lies the GWALIA CEMETERY on the right hand side of the road.

Visitors to this site should note a 400 metre grassed access path which is unsuitable for vehicles and that prior to reaching the cemetery the road name changes to Elverdingseweg.
