Travel Guide

The bunkers at Essex Farm Cemetery are the location where John McCrae wrote the famous poem, "In Flanders Fields". 

The bunkers were used as makeshift hospitals where Lieutenant Colonel McCrae tended to the wounded and dying soldiers of World War I. 

The cemetery adjacent to the bunkers is the resting place for over 1,000 soldiers of the Great War. The youngest soldier, 5750 Rifleman V.J. Strudwick, aged 15, lies to rest in the cemetery.
