In the footsteps of Caesar and Jan de Lichte

The link between Julius Caesar and Jan de Lichte does not seem obvious at first glance. One was a local bushwacker, the other a world-famous politician. However, both have an obvious link to Velzeke. Velzeke was once an important part of the Roman heirloom network and it was the home base of Jan de Lichte. This walk combines the story of the two illustrious figures in one tour.
