Art Deco in Ypres

I didn’t expect to find Art Deco buildings in Ypres but what else can you call this?

Art Deco House Ypres

It was on the Menin Road inside the city limits. And it wasn’t alone; the building below was on the opposite side of the road a bit further in.

Once I’d started looking I found deco styling quite easily:-

This is the above building’s doorway. Good ironwork here too:-

Nearer the outskirts but still on the Menin Road was this brick building:-

On the Menin Road on the way in to town from our hotel was this. We didn’t have time to visit the museum it houses; there were too many others:- Art Deco Building, Ypres
