Hello, I am a board member of the local historical association of the municipality of Wingene. Wingene is located in the province of West Flanders in the country Belgium. A local history circle is an organization concerned with increasing knowledge about the history and/or archeology of one's own living environment and promoting interest in this environment.

Unlike many historical associations, local history associations do not focus exclusively on history but also on the present; In addition to historical aspects, their activities also include cultural, geographical and natural history aspects. Genealogy is an important activity as well as safeguarding or managing cultural heritage.
