About this audio guide
This guide to the Campo Santo in Ghent's Sint-Amandsberg district follows Leo Vindevogel, the wartime mayor of Ronse and a member of the Belgian parliament, from his surrender at liberation into the military courts of nineteen forty-five. It touches the German occupation, the reckoning that followed it, and a case Flanders has argued over for decades. Best heard on the hilltop paths among the Catholic family tombs.
