The project
Sint-Bernarduscollege wants to develop a project on life, wars and peace in 18th century Europe.
This year the city commemorates the anniversary of the Oudenaarde battle, which took place in 1708. We will work on different activities taking this event into account: we will discover the relations and bonds (historical, artistic, literary, etc.) of both Spain and Belgium from that period to present day.
