In Flanders Fields Museum, World War I museum in the reconstructed Cloth Hall, Ypres, Belgium.

The museum occupies the second floor of the medieval Cloth Hall, presenting extensive collections of wartime artifacts and personal stories from the Western Front.

The original building sustained heavy artillery damage during World War I before being restored to house exhibits documenting the conflict in Flanders Fields.

Visitors receive electronic poppy bracelets that activate multimedia displays in their chosen language, connecting them with individual wartime experiences through the exhibits.

The museum maintains regular hours from 10:00 to 17:00 Tuesday through Sunday, with adult admission at 10 euros and reduced rates for children and students.

The museum collection includes original medical equipment, uniforms, and a reconstructed munitions wagon that illustrates the wartime conditions in the Ypres Salient.
