Landscape Symbols Author 1: ...
(50° 15′ nord, 4° 36′ est) This picture has been taken in Florennes. It represents a memorial that was made in memory of the soldiers who died during the war 14-18. For me, it is a symbol because everybody in the city knows it, his height and surface attract the eyes of people and impact the landscape, and overall, all the names of the soldiers of my city who died during the war are written on it. Every year, a tribute is done in their honor. Also, I think that this kind of memorial is a track from the paste that allows (and that allowed me) to learn to the younger generations what happened during war.
(44° 30′ 00″ nord, 11° 21′ 00″ est) The Bologna Shoah Memorial is located in Bologna, near the train station. The memorial was made by the joint commitment of the Jewish community, institution and private citizens to remind of the shoah period, the empty orbits reminding of the cells in which people were living in concentration camp. The Municipality suggested to build it at the railway station where happened the bombing of 2 august 1980 which increases even more his nature of memory. For me, it is a landscape symbol because these “towers” are imposing and they impact the landscape, which allows to attract attention of people. This kind of memorial allows us to remember what happened in the past and this part of history is known by most of people. The memorial is understandable by everybody and it is also a track from the past which can learn to the younger generations what happened during war.
(50° 27′ nord, 3° 57′ est) This picture was taken in Mons, in Belgium and on the top, we can see the belfry. For me, belfries are landscape symbols because of their really imposing height and their history. Indeed, during the 17th century, people start building belfries, like the one in Mons to concurrence the church. They wanted to build buildings higher than churches, to show that they had more power. Today, it is a bit less meaningful, as there is not conflicts with the church anymore as there were when the belfry was built, but it is still part of the landscape and we can see it from a lot of places of the city and everybody in the region knows it. To conclude, I think it is a track of the past, but these days, I think that that belfry is more a landmark, thanks to its very high height than a “rebellion” movement, as the conflict between church and other citizens is not topical anymore
